I mentioned the Pullen Park Christmas event had professional photographers. Since all of the pictures were taken at night, I was ogling their cameras to check out their equipment and hoping to learn some tricks. But guess what? I already know this trick of taking not-good photos:
As much as I joke, it is hard to quickly snap family pictures in the dark and expect any great results. We said yes to every opportunity to get our picture taken and got one semi-decent group shot on the last train ride:
Quite seriously, for $7 a person to ride the train at least 5 times, ride the carousel twice, ride the boats once, do a variety of arts and crafts, listen to live Christmas music, see (but fear) Santa, and end up with some semi-decent group picture? One of the best bargains of the Christmas season.

And you forgot the "best" part....
your very own Koozy!
Pullen Park is also a fav for a summer day when we are going stir crazy at home.
I think next summer we are going to try a paddle boat... oh wait, I'll have a baby so strike that.
I think you are cursed to never be in a great picture. I think it's because you do such a good job taking them, that no one will ever be able to capture you.
They aren't bad picutres, they just aren't as good as yours.
They might not be great, but it still looks like you guys had a great time. Pictures can't capture everything, right? I'll have to search our area to see if they have anything like that. Maybe next year!
Looks and sounds like you had an awesome time.
How do they get the photos to you?
They're not cheesy at all! I think they look "real" :) Family time!!
