All I wanted...

was a good picture of the kids together in their coordinating outfits!


1.  Realize that wind gusts of many m.p.h. aren't helpful.

2.  Try again, repositioning children.  Realize that looking into the bright sun isn't the way to go either.

3.  Give up on the idea of a cute outdoor picture.  Take them inside, stick them on the steps and be happy with the first one you get of them with their eyes open and looking at the camera.
