Well, its actually Saturday morning, but I guess its still Friday on the west coast!
We are making a church
pictorial directory, and this week are the photo shoots. The pictures are top quality, but its been very frustrating. We need as many people as possible to get in there, because we want
every one's photos, and everyone gets a "free" 8x10 and directory. They said it was free, but they are charging tax and a $9.95 handling fee! Then, the people who plan it are supposed to receive a $50 discount on pics, but the salesman did not send them to us, and they conveniently can't give it without that. They finally decided to give me the discount and deal with it later, because I was not going to buy anything without it, and they were breaking their contract if they did not honor it. Thankfully the other 3 on the planning committee don't have their pics until next Saturday, so they have time to get it dealt with.
The pics were so fun to get made, though. The kids were cute and funny. I can't wait to get the pics back and find someone with a scanner, or I'll just take a pic of the pic and post it, because one of the shots is the kids all sitting on the ground in a group and Sam was put on Devon's shoulders and it was just so gosh darn cute! Sam did really well until the end, he was so over it, which really surprised me, because he's so happy and social, but he hasn't been acting normal the last few days.
Devon, however, seems to be getting better! The fever is gone, but he's still sleepy and has a sore throat, and grumpy as the day is long. That is contagious because I am even more grumpy than the day is long after dealing with the kids lately.
Kaytlin refuses to wear what I wanted her to wear for pictures, even to the point of sneaking pants out of the house for pics and telling me she had appropriate clothes with her. It was too suspicious, so I searched her room and she had not
brought a skirt with at all. So I called her and asked her what skirt she had brought, and she said "You weren't supposed to ask me that!"
Umm, sorry dear, but you can't fool mom. So, even though you can't see below her waist at all, I forced her to wear the skirt, and almost was mad enough to force her to wear a fancy dress she absolutely did not want to wear.
After getting home and fighting with them to do chores, I was pretty close to losing it! Donnie told me that when he acts the way I was that I ask him if he's taking his
meds,
lol. Its not time for St. John's Wort, if
that's what he's asking, but yes, I'm pretty stressed and mad at the kids.
One more day of pics at church, and tomorrow is also prom for Drew and
Kaytlin, and paintball for Donnie, Devon and Cody. That leaves me with Hope-Anne, Trinity and Sam doing the pictures at church.
Maybe I should join my mom's blog and go whine over there, I have my own cheese.
Isn't Kaytlin gorgeous!?
Just stunning!
This is the amazing and adorable hairstyle Sarah did!
Drew, showing his dork-side, lol. I don't know whats up with him and fedoras. He is a handsome one, though!
Here's the group of them: Drew, R, Kaytlin and L.
And another. I'll post more pics later, I have some close ups of them on the camera, but Kaytlin took it. R has the prettiest smile I've ever seen, and I want to get it on here.
