Last Saturday morning, we went to the square in McKinney for our family Christmas pictures. Just getting there is an ordeal in itself, of course. It is not an easy feat (for me at least) to get 2 kids ready for pictures while trying to get myself ready as well. But I gave up on trying to make everything look perfect and just did the best I could, then enjoyed the experience. Here is the sweetest picture I took of Katie and GD walking around the square. It doesn't get much better than this!! :)
Our neighbor, Heather Flores was our photographer. She has taken our family pictures once before and does a great job. Maybe even more importantly, she snaps those pictures quickly which is paramount when you have small kids! Heather brought her son, Zach who is a friend of Kason's. It was a great distraction for the kids to have Zach to pal around with between pictures. He also made funny faces for the kids to smile at when it was picture time. Here is a picture of Kason and Zach that day:
Katie especially liked Zach's funny faces and started making funny faces of her own. Here is a picture that Heather took of Katie making her funny faces:
The pictures turned out great. Be on the lookout for our Christmas cards in your mailbox soon! Here is a preview of one of the family pictures that Heather took. (This isn't the one on our Christmas cards, I don't want to spoil that for you! :)
After the pictures, we went to Mom and Pop's Popcorn which is the cutest little store there on the square. They had all kinds of popcorn and tons and tons of candy!!! The kids were, of course, like kids in a candy store! We told them to pick one thing and it took them forever because the amount of candy was so overwhelming.
It is hard to believe that Christmas will be here before we know it. But Thanksgiving is first! So I will say Happy Thanksgiving from the Hendricks family to you!! :)
