Attempt

I wanted to get the children together to take a photo for our Christmas card. It did not happen the way that I thought it would. As I attempted to get the shot it all sort of fell apart. Below is the play by play and ultimately the reason why I do not have a photo to use.
First take three children and set them on the grass. Take a photo just as one of them decides to turn and reach for something else. Notice how the other two are totally into this plan.
Next set them up on a small chair and see if they are all able to look at the same time. As you can see this also does not work.
After that watch as Kate decides that she is done and leaves to pursue the cat that just walked by. Those left behind do not seem to notice.
Finally you get one child by default since he is captivated by the tear in the fabric and is not done playing with the strings. By this time his brother and sister have left to play and I have given up on getting an amazing photo. I may just take a picture of a tree this year :)

Not bad as we have the same thing. That's okay it will be fine for grandma. How are you guys doing? There's not much to do lately here as I am just feeling lazy with this cold weather.
Give our hugs to the kids and we miss you.
