Embrace the Camera July 26th

Last week we were able to check another item off of the summer list.....Top That Pizza. 

Frankly it was hot, I didn't want to cook dinner or clean up dinner so we loaded up the family and headed out for pizza.  We love Top That because we can all choose our own toppings.  That is really nice considering the wide range of preferences in this family.  The girls like cheese (duh), Jason likes meat, meat and more meat, and I like things like sun dried tomatoes and peppers.

While we were there I snapped a pic of me and Molly Moo while she had her mouth full of Oreos.  (another nice perk, oreos in the kids meal)


Again, I feel it is important to say how much I dislike being in pictures, but I do it anyway.  Why?  Because when my kids are older they will appreciate these pictures of us together.  They will not look back and be as critical of me as I am of myself.  I appreciate Emily and her consistency with getting in pictures with her kiddos.  It helps me remember to be more intentional about capturing some memories that include me!

You should seriously embrace the camera!

  4. Not liking yourself in photos is all the more reason to take them. Sooner or later you are bound to get a few that you actually like ;) BTW, I think you and your little one look awfully cute in the one above.
