Official Christmas photo, finally.. .

This reminds us of the days when you brought film to the mall and waited a week or so for the results. (You could pay extra for "overnight.") Maybe you ordered "doubles" in matte or glossy, maybe you sprung for the extra-large images that you intended to frame but never got around to doing. When you did pick up the package, you might not wait to bring home to share, but rather tore it open on the spot or in the parking lot and started to relive the experiences the pictures retold -- or maybe the disappointment of blurred images.
We sort of went through all that with some of our Christmas photos this year. They finally arrived this week, not because the drug store was slow, but because the camera had been left behind, trapping the digital images inside. Since then, the camera has been retrieved, images downloaded, and we finally get a look at what a great time we had over Christmas. Here is the official photo of everyone, utilizing the time delay feature in Jennifer's camera.
