A Unsuccessfully Successful Photo Shoot

Tonight I tried to take pictures of the kids. You know some good ones, with my good camera that aren't taken at the house, with nice clothes on. I don't know what I was thinking!

After dinner I cleaned them up and got them dressed, hair fixed and shoes on. I went out and loaded them in the car and it starts to sprinkle as we pull out of the drive way. I head towards Jacob's Dream and the rain gets a little harder. The wind starts blowing like crazy. So I decided that we would go down to Sonic and get a drink, try to wait it out. I get my drink and start to pull out and Mason says, "I need to go potty." Ah! I tell him to wait, we will be there in 2 minutes. I'm thinking why didn't I put them in pull-ups. Stupid. The rain is letting up and stops by the time we get back to Jacob's Dream. So I run to get Mason out to take him to the back to go potty and he is soaked. And of coarse I don't have cute extra shorts in the car, I have crazy camos. Awesome. But we are already dressed up past bedtime, so I figure I will try for closeups. I did get a couple of cute ones, but they weren't very cooperative. I have to jump up and down, literally, to get their attention. Then 5 minutes in Sawyer stands up, "I have to go potty." I tell her to wait just a minute and she starts to pee right there. Well I think that's it for the shoot....

At least we got some cute pictures, so I guess the wet clothes and carseat were worth it!
