It finally happened! My hopes and dreams for our family Christmas card finally came true. For several years we had wanted to recapture the magic of the Olan Mills classic "floating head" picture. Mostly because we thought it would be funny if my grandma thought that Cory's floating head meant that he'd died. And while Cory's untimely death isn't funny, confusing grandma sometimes is.
Jami was very gracious to cast her pearls (photography skills & studio) before swine (us).
In preparation for this photo shoot, we had to start carbo loading in 2007, track down toddler bifocals and call in a coupol'a favors from people who had spare turtlenecks willing to loan. Also, Jami has never forgotten the power of a hot curling iron coupled with Aussie Sprunch Spray (Maximum Hold).
