Lil' Stinker!








That first picture just sums boyhood all up, doesn't it! The guy is a stinker and yet knows how to capture hearts!
Eli got his school pics back today. I have a pet peeve with school pictures. Why pay out the wazoo for something when you can take a snapshot in your backyard that is going to look way better? It is such a rip-off, and yet I don't think I have the guts to be the "parent" who doesn't send the "form" with their kid on picture day!!

Great pics, love the first one now that is a true boy for ya. I agree about not wanting to buy school pics but you don't want to be the only one who doesn't.
Wanted to let you know that I posted my Baked Potato soup recipe on your Soups On post as Barb asked I can do the veggie soup one later as I will be digging out that recipe soon as well.

I have to admit....I am the parent who did not order this year. Only for the reason that they take fall AND spring pictures at Chase's school, and the spring ones are WAY cuter!! I must admit i did feel guilty that day, and I explained up and down to Chase WHY i wasn't sending a form with him. I think we DO capture way cuter pics on our own too.

My dad was a professional photographer.... we NEVER bought school pictures!
You do a great job capturing your boys' true spirits... something a posed photo in front of a cheesy backdrop can't do!

I've been meaning to come over and leave you my blog address...

I'm with ya, poor Will has had one professional photo in his almost 16 months, the rest are just home shots, which I do like better. But there is something to be said for those stereotypical "school pictures" with the blue background, who doesn't have a few they loathe lying around at their parents house?!

Don't call my best buddy a lil' stinker! Because boys should never be described like that... umm, wait. Anyway, tell my lil' buddy I said hello.
