Strangest Evening...Ever!

Meeting Amy

Four Year-Old Conversations

~The “Experience”~
Most holidays, my sister and I put ourselves through the “experience.”The “experience” of getting a shot of all of the cousins together.Sounds like a wonderful idea.  Until you actually try to get 10 kiddos to all smile and pose at the same time.That experience just ain’t gonna be a fun one.We usually get a couple of cousins who are completely disinterested in even trying to make Aunt Angie and Aunt Drew’s cameras happy:
