Smile! Family Portraits!

Yesterday we went to JC Penny and took family pictures!

I had been planning to take my sons for ages… yet I kept procrastinating. Yesterday my husband had the afternoon off, so I made an appointment, dressed the boys in solid-color T-shirts, and off we went!

I had a coupon, so in the end I purchased one of every pose- a family portrait, a photo of my husband and me, and an individual of each of the three kids. Perhaps I’ll make it into a decorative collage, combining all of the images together- if I’m in the creative mood!

I’ll post the pictures when they’re ready, shortly.

Are you a scrapbooker? How are you at keeping your family albums up-to-date? Is it a project of your own, or does your partner or child help you?
{I’m terribly embarrassed to admit that I’m about 3 years behind:( }

    Yes, I am a scrapper. Was a CM consultant for years. just recently stopped as I will be home schooling 2 children and havea little one underfoot next year. I figured I had to drop some things. I am “behind” how far who knows I skip around a lot. Mulitple albums. Of recent, the last year I have focused on the family album. Great way to relax and reflect on the good times. My children love to look at the pages. My 9 year old has been doing her own school and a persoal album. Also a great time to spend together.

    We have all seen beautiful photos where the object is perfectly focused while the background is blurred. Such a photo can be very dramatic and might seem to be hard to shoot. In this article we will give you a few tips on how to shoot blurry background…
