We did our photographs at JcPenneys. Honestly... I wasn't too happy with them, but I ordered some anyway. This is what I get for not going to a photographer and paying a little more. I just thought it may be easier to go to JcPenneys and do it and it always seems so busy, so I thought they must be decent. The lady used cheesy backgrounds. Thank god I jumped in and asked her to change them when she took pictures of Alyona, because she was using the tackiest blue background that totally didn't match her outfit! You know the kind they use on school photographs for a yearbook? The cheesy, cloudy blue? Seriously. Plus Syoma wasn't smiling in half of them because he wasn't prepared, but she didn't seem to want to re-take any photographs. I regret not being a tiny bit more pushy. Oh, and the photographer girl used props like a feather boa and pearls, which just screams cheap glamourshots and it's definately not the style I'd usually go for, but she still looks like a doll. But next time no JcPenneys! I'm just going to a photographer. I had actually found one I liked and tried to book an appointment with her, but unfortunately she was going out of town and will be out of town until January. So, I think in the spring I'll try to book an appointment with her. Oh, and to top it off we won't get out pictures back until the 8'th of January! They were supposed to be Christmas presents. I missed the before Christmas cut off by an hour! How unlucky!
I finally was able to watch The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe! I *loved* it. I don't know what took me so long to finally see it. Well, I had it in my netflix queue, but I still haven't watched the latest dvd that I received from there. Anyway, it was amazingly done, I thought. I loved the cast. The Queen was cast well, I think. I loved Mr. Thumnus! The husband loved it as well and now we're dying of anticipation to see the next one! And now I really have the urge to go to the library, which is where I found this dvd and go check out the books! I haven't read them in years! Cold Mountain is next on our list of dvd to watch that we've checked out from the library. I've heard alot of nice things about it, so I hope we enjoy it. I'm not a terribly huge fan of American Civil War movies, so we'll see. But it has a really good cast, so how can I refuse?
I really need to get into the Christmas mood and try to do decorations and finish Alyona's stocking, but I've been so tired. The house is literaly a disaster. I can't keep it clean and I've just been feeling very worn out the past few days. Today was exhausting. All of the picture nerves and Alyona was acting a little monsterish most of the day.
Anyway, I really feel like crashing. I think at this point I could fall asleep and not wake up for about a week. Yawn yawn yawn. Sleep tight everyone!
