Smile! Or You'll Go To Your Room!

We had a family photo shoot yesterday!

In honor of 12 years of wedded suffication bliss...

We forced the boys to dress up! Under protest! In shirts that button up!

Daaaaaaaad! This shirt isn't comfortable!

I am only smiling for TWO pictures.

Why do we have to wear shirts with collars and buttons???

Why? Because THAT is how Mom and Dad celebrate!

We can only truly enjoy our special day if we've caused you some significant discomfort and misery!

Now be quiet! And SMILE like you LOVE us despite our love for horribly restrictive clothing...

or I'll disconnect your computers.

Now! Everyone say, "Boogers and Farts!"

You look like such the cute family!!! I think they did great looking like they are happy despite the shirt they can't wait to rip off 2 seconds after the shoot is finished!!! Now, you just need a frame.

Great family, Jen- at our house we use "tooters" to get the needed shot...

"Did you tooters? STINKY BUNNERS!!!"

Hmmmm, buggers & farts? Like it - it's got style. Speaking of buggers, do you know of a way to get my toddler to stop eating hers? Just wondering...

Btw, GREAT photos! You have a lovely family!

Very Nice Pics. Funny, My oldest sone LOVES the collared button down shirts. Wears them to school. The other, not so much. I shirt with wrestling on it and he's in heaven! My anniversary is on Friday!

Cutest. Pictures. Ever. You are my kind of lady.

Annie said...

You got some great ones! Happy Anniversary!

Cant Hardly Wait said...

"I'm only smiling for TWO pictures." hahaha, that's totally something I would say. Happy Anniversary by the way. What a cute couple. And I love your hair.

Great pictures, so nice to see the whole Jiggety Family in their finery.

Cheryl Lage said...

What fantastic pictures! Oh, the travesty of shirts with buttons! Love how they declared a two-smile only quota. Little negotiators!

Hope the day was as wonderful as it looks to have been. :)

mrsbear said...

You're a good looking bunch. I think it was definitely worth the whining. My sons only own tee-shirts, they don't wear anything button down. Great family photos.

The Mom said...

Gorgeous, I see a Christmas photo in the works!

Eudea-Mamia said...

Wonderful!

And yes, if I could go back and do one thing over as a mom, I would force my infants to wear collared shirts like I "trained" them to wear hats.

I just reread that - that's the one thing I would pick?! Ah no, but you know. Train 'em early you young moms!

Great shots.

Okay, so that's the key phrase for getting kids to smile so perfectly in a photo shoot?! Boogers and farts...I will have to remember that. "Say cheese" just is't working for us anymore!

Gorgeous pics! You have such a beautiful family!!

Those pictures turned out fantastic! I'm surprised the boys didn't call you out for being the only one in a non-restrictive shirt. :)
