Elliott Project #1

Last weekend we decided to take our own Christmas photo for our family Christmas card.  We were going to take Elliott to see Santa at the mall dressed in his cute little outfit, but he had a different idea and decided to have a toddler melt down instead.  I have learned to let plans go a little better, so I figured we would set up a tripod, and take a family self-photo in front of the tree.  We "trained" Elliott, instructing him to look at the camera and say "cheese", and surprisingly he did an excellent job!  After we took the picture we would all run over to the camera to see the result.  Then, Elliott and I would hurry back to our spot in front of the tree while dad pressed the button, and we "cheesed" it up again!  I am pretty happy with the result!
