My Baker's Dozen Weekend...

Normally this is where I'd link back to the Baker's Dozen meme but it doesn't seem to be working at the moment. Sad

Ever try to take pictures of teenagers who don't want to be photographed? TB did on Friday during Kristin's party and he got a lot of hands over faces and blurriness. Here's what I mean:

1. On Friday night, the halls of our house were filled with the sounds of teenagers as Kristin hosted her first ever Christmas party. The kids were only shy when the camera came out!

2. Why are teenagers so camera shy?

3. Fortunately, they began to warm up and allowed the paparazzi to do his thing...for the most part. Some kids still didn't want to be seen. See the kid with her back to the camera? I don't think TB got a picture of her face once. Even in the last shot above she managed to get her arm up in front of her face! :D

4. A good time was had by all...

we think! No, seriously, all clowning aside, everyone had fun. No Christmas music was played nor any Christmas movie was watched, though.

5. Billy came home for the holidays on Saturday!

6. We went to see King Kong--what a great movie! Make sure your seat is comfy though. It's a long time to sit on a saggy or low seat with broken springs! :P

7. The best time to take a bathroom break: when you see the giant bugs appear. Trust me. It's a good time to go!

8. I realized I'm not as done with my Christmas shopping as I thought I was. TB and I went into Target with the kids after the movie and right away I was overwhelmed with the crowds.

9. I'm not working now...why would I shop on the crazy weekend before Christmas?

10. I wanted to watch a Christmas special last night and President Bush interrupted with a speech about how we need to be in Iraq. Just what I want instead of a nice good-feeling Christmas movie--a message of war. :P And on a Sunday! What was he thinking?

11. I'm not tired of Christmas music yet...

12. But where is the snow?
