If you would like to link to us go right ahead, I do ask though that if you know us in real life that you use my kids blog names if you refer to them. I don't use them in my blog or the title for safety purposes. Thanks so much!

Camera Tricks

KK so I asked Jer to take some pictures of me in the outfit I'm going to wear to my class reunion tomorrow. And they ended up looking strangely like those funky "Before and After" weight loss photos. LOL all because of how I was facing. Obviously I like the after shot better! LOL (keep in mind that these were taken at bout 10pm so my hair and makeup are very tired from a long day of chasing kidlets)

KK so here is "Before" (BLECH!)




Jer says I don't look nearly that big in real life (Pray oh PRAY that he is telling the truth and not just buttering me up!!) And here is the "After"



I lost 2o lbs is 5 SEC!!!! YA! LOL No really it's amazing what difference the direction you face your hips makes doesn't it? Too bad i can't walk around like that all the time without people thinking I'm a total nutcase! I can see it now.... "What is up with that lady? Do you think she has back problems or something? Maybe fused discs?"

Anywho, here is my favorite picture of me from that little picture fest. He doesn't take many pictures so I seldom get to post pictures of myself (outside of the new hairdo every 2 months!).

It is amazing what a side shot will do. Between you and me (and everyone else) I always make James turn to the side and then suck it in. It is a neat little trick. Anyway, you look great. It's a cute top. Have fun at the reunion!

Looks cute! I will be wearing black capris with a black top and a jacket thing and HOT PINK high heels. It is pretty hilarious!

YAY!!! Side shots really are best. Or if you leave your legs sideways and turn your top frontways I've learned it really makes my waist look narrow. Kind of crazy.

Have so much fun at your reunion! And honestly, everyone else there is worried about what they look like and are wearing, etc. I totally wore jeans and a T-shirt to mine. :)

Hey, April! I saw your comment and picture on Fluffy Chicky's blog and thought I'd drop by to say hi. Wish I could come to the reunion - I hope you have a great time!
