We're having a heck of a time finding a good photo to use for family Christmas cards this year. We can get everybody facing the same direction, but after that, it's anybody's guess what happens between "cheese" and the click of the shutter. There's just a little something in each photo that prevents us from shouting, "Eureka! We've found it!" But we've run out of the energy to go through the whole family-photo-shoot again.
So, with the understanding that we're not doing the one from last month, no matter how cute the funny faces can be... which of the following pictures do y'all think we should include in our
Easter, er, Christmas cards? (Assuming we're going to get them out. This year.)
Picture A:
Picture B: (we don't know the man in the background - we'd crop him out)
Picture C:
Thanks!

Lovely family!
For me it was between A and B. I choose B just because I can see everyone the best in that photo. I really liked A as well -- love your hair.
Frankie =)
I vote for C... compositionally I prefer the arrangement of you folks:-)
And the black and white is nice too:-)
Picture A is a keeper!
I vote for picture "A". Everybody looks really good in that picture. My second choice is "B". Emily's expression is priceless, and the setting is beautiful.
Have a great weekend!

I like photo B.

My vote is for "C." Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like a flying, er, tractor. LOL
I love the pictures of the boys decorating in the previous post. Martha Stewart has nothing on them!
Oh! What a tough choice! I like them all, and think you couldn't go wrong no matter which one you pick. I'm kind of partial to "B", though, maybe because it's a closer shot and it's easier to see everyone's faces. But really, they're all good and the kids look adorable in each one!
Merry Christmas!

Wow! I like all of them! Maybe I like C the best, but I think any of them would be great!
I like picture A.
They are all lovely! You have a beautiful family, and the love just shines in the picture.
I choose B.
I hate you with the heat of a thousand suns. How DARE, how DARE DARE DARE you be so thin and pretty and young looking after having had so many babies. Good LORD, woman, would you PLEASE look like you've given birth??? And that last picture... what woman who has had four babies can pull off a WHITE SHIRT and still look thin???? Do you EAT?!?!?! I'm so disgusted by how thin/pretty/young looking you are that I refuse to participate in the photo choosing. Bah humbug.

Oh Dy! I love all those pictures! I like the "atmosphere" of A and C the best, but I think I'd have to narrow it down to B (cropped close),because of Little Miss Emily's cute pink self. You are so gorgeous ~ no wonder your kids are so cute!
I love B. You all look fabulous.
Heather
I like picture C, because I think it is a reflection of your life. Plus, I love your hair in that picture.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas, Dy. I feel like I haven't "talked" to you forever.
God bless you and your family.
I like A,
Aunt Sissa
I vote B.
They are all great. How about a collage of all three?
I'd pick A, because I like your hair down in that one and because Smidge is just adorable. And none of the rest of the family look particularly weird, either. :)
B is hilarious because of the look on Miss Emily's face!
I don't think I'd pick C, mostly because everyone's eyes seem to be looking a different direction.
I vote B, with A coming in a close second. Great pictures, you have a lovely family! Matt was remarking how different you look in all three pictures - it is amazing how much changing your hairstyle changes your whole look!
First off....you look gorgeous Dy!! Woohoo. One hot mama. :)
My vote is A because of the faces. Allthe pictures are darling though. I really love the one with the tractor.
all of them are great but I pick c :)

Dy, your beauty emanates most brilliantly from B. You've gotta use B.
Tammy
Any except A. Wouldn't it remind you of the scary Santa experience?
I like B.
I'd go with B, though they are all great!
Looking through all of the comments, I'm not sure this will really help you decide! But I say B.
Thanks for the house tour, too. It looks wonderful! The commentary had me in stitches, too! :)

Hey! That guy in picture B is my Uncle Arnold!
Just kidding.
I like B the best.
Blast it, I never even saw these!! For some reason, your site doesn't always refresh when I load it, then suddenly it does and there are 10 posts that I've missed. :P
ALL of these photos are awesome. Damn it, you're pretty and thin and you make me sick. LOL If you weren't one of my favorite online people, I think I'd decide not to like you anymore. :)
