When all else fails, do this:

Meet my friend, Carl.
Spunky, sweet, "take-my-picture" Carl.

This little boy was one of the guests at his grandmother's 75th birthday party where I took pictures last Saturday night. When I came home that night and uploaded all the photos, this shot was the last one I had taken, and when I saw it I laughed out loud.

In fact, there were several shots of little boys doing crazy things. I thought about doing a post called "Boys will be boys" but getting permission to use the photos of a whole bunch of little boys I don't know would have taken a while. Carl's mom graciously said yes when asked if he could appear on my blog.

I had fun taking pictures at that event on Saturday, and I ended up with some really nice shots {if I do say so myself}. My favorite out of almost 400 photos? Carl.

How many times during the day do you wish you could just make this face?
:o)

That is a great photo - definitely made me smile this morning. My great-nephew was here visiting a few months ago & he took some photos with my camera. My favorites were the ten or so he took trying to get a good shot of the tennis shoes he was wearing! Gotta love little boys.

too cute! I wonder if this face would have any effect on teenage girl attitude? Maybe I should try it next time one of them is mouthing off!

Love Carl's expression and your shot, I would have liked to have made that face maybe 5-6 times today ;)

LOL! And I love that you took 400 photos. I just uploaded 1400 photos from our two weeks in Oregon. I thought it was a bit much, but I don't feel so bad now. The big problem is going through all of them to decide which ones are the keepers. At least 800 of them must be of Caleb!

Love it! There sure were a few times yesterday that I would have loved to have done that. :)
