"School" Pictures

Somehow the past couple of years, we have managed to have someone sick or some other interruption at the scheduled time for "school" pictures to be taken for our homeschool yearbook. So...somehow I always end up waiting until the last minute (surprise, surprise ;-)) and having a frantic picture-taking session followed by a mad dash to get pictures printed and ready just in time for the deadline. (Next year will be different. I promise. Really.)

*Anyway*....Wednesday was "picture day" at the Harris House/School. I was pleased with the results on everyone but Ammah Grace...she was at a grumpy spot and decided she did *not* want to have her picture taken. We spent quite some time, in the chilly wind, trying to get her to flash a smile, only to have her finally give a half-hearted effort when her siblings promised her a Jolly Rancher if she would smile and get it over with! The final result was *not* a great one, but much better than earlier attempts (I'm posting a few of those, too, so you can get an idea of what we had to work with. :))
