Vintage Family Image....

What a wonderful Thanksgiving day… Food, family, rest…. We have so much to be thankful for…. Most importantly, we know Whom to be thankful to…. God is good…. Even though I’ve had the week off from teaching, we’ve already photographed 4 families, and still two to go… I’ll be writing more on them soon… but for now, I want to focus on our family…. M wanted to take a family portrait, she wanted it to be different… so she came up with this vintage 1940s look with our ’49 Chevy… Monday we all piled into the van and went to Thrift Town… a fabulous way to shop (and very Green too)… she got me a coat, the boys a coat and vest, all for under $25…. We then found two hats… so the grand total for the entire photo session wardrobe was $50… Anyway, the day was overcast, which I like, and the wind wasn’t an issue… after corralling the boys, getting them dressed, and waiting for M to pretty up, we finally got it in… the image below is our choice for the Christmas card… Man, does time fly by or what? Our boys have gotten so big….. M always says, “I wish they would stay little forever”…. Of course only when they are behaving….. Tell us what you think? Enjoy…..
