Tammy and the Tantrums

We are spending a few days up at the Lake for our Anniversary, per tradition. We thought it would be fun to try and get a few pictures of the kids down by the lake, but they were having none of it! The above picture is one of the better ones I got of the three of them together.

We bribed,

we cajoled,

we threatened,

we pleaded,

we made silly faces,

finally we gave up.

Oh well, there's always next year. We had told the kids we were going to get a cookie after taking pictures but since the kids were being so ornery, I told them we cancelled the cookie event and were going straight back to the condo.

Chaos ensued.

Who knew crying was so contagious?

Just breaks your heart, doesn't it?

Then I told them I was kidding.
After a particularly heinous anniversary dinner (why do we keep bringing them?! UGH!) we were driving back to the condo and saw a billboard for "Fritz & the Tantrums" headlining at one of the Casinos. Eric and I laughed that we have a lot in common with old Fritz, we know all about tantrums! I thought "Tammy and the Tantrums" sounded even better, so that's what I decided to call us.






I may never get a picture with all three looking at the camera at once, but my kids come with a money back guarantee that they will always, always give you a silly face upon request!
