Retake successful

Testing all my kids' nerves, I packed them all into the van again today, determined to get a better picture taken.
I demanded that we all wear exactly the same clothes, stand in the exact same places relative to each other, and hold our hands and facial expressions in exactly the same way as in the picture whose background cars and crutch we didn't so much like.
Just an eight hour drive to this tropical, Mayan temple garden and the kids responded perfectly!!!






Ok. Actually fellow blog reader Kate worked her amazing skills and shared this for all of us. Thanks so much Kate !

Too funny... I sat there comparing the two for several minutes wondering.... Now if I could only be photoshopped to somewhere in Tahiti, life would be grand!

Love the pic -- either way! ;)

Love your energy for gathering your entire family for this family photo. I cannot believe the difference in it once the previous background was removed. It is a great photo!
