More Goofing Off

You know how people try to make a point of smiling when their pictures are being taken? Well, Kristin makes a point not to smile--at least not for the spring pictures. This tradition started the spring (or maybe the one after) Rich died and I thought it had to do with grieving. Maybe it does. Maybe not. We decided to ask Kristin and she says her friends think she photographs better grim faced. TB and I don't happen to agree but I'm not forcing the issue. TB did have a little fun with photoshop though.

I thought his effort was adorable, especially adding the elfin ears. I thought Kristin would get a big kick out of it too so I asked TB to print a copy of the picture for her. She didn't like it though. My daughter, who is into Hellsing the Vampire Hunter and other similar genre, was creeped out by the elf ears and the smile. Or...it was probably being photoshopped that creeped her out.
