It's That Time Of Year Again....

Yes, for the annual Christmas Photo. Or should I say Annual Christmas Argument? Trying to get three, then, four, and now SIX dogs to sit still long enough to snap a picture and have them looking in the same direction is always challenging. When we have a puppy like this year it is always particularly challenging. Hubby is always there to help but it always turns into a quibble. The Annual Disagreement usually goes something like this:
Me: I'll get the dogs ready and tell you when to take the picture.
Hubby: Fine.
Me: (setting up each dog, pulling cowering Daisy repeatedly back, grabbing an escaping dog) There! OK! They're all looking at you! Take the Picture!
Hubby: no sound
Me: TAKE THE PICTURE! NOW!
Hubby: (fumble) wha?
Me: NOW!!!
Dusty lays down, Daisy slinks off, Shiloh grumbles because Moto is touching him.
*Click* goes the camera.
Me: (sighs loudly)
Hubby: You said to take it....
You get the picture, pun intended. I'll post some out takes as we undertake this year's portrait.
Meantime, Happy Thanksgiving!
