The Ms. El Cheapo 2007 Results Are In


Now, as I'm sure everyone knows, I'm pretty darn cheap. One of my slogans is "If it's fo' FREE, is fo' ME" (courteousy of the Morris clan). So when it came time to take Charlotte's Christmas picture this year I thought, "Why would I pay someone to do what I can do myself at NO COST"? Well, now I know why. What did people do before digital cameras? I must have taken 100+ photos before I even had one that was relatively decent. The picture up above was the 2007 Team Hellyer Xmas Photo Finalist, however I'd like to share some of the runners up with you.

This first picture was just plain rude.
This next one was Brian's favorite, but the judges felt that it exuded too much fear and not enough cheer.
Safety soon became a concern when one of the contestants could not refrain from eating the lights.
This last one lost because of pure cheesiness.

Welcome to the 21st Century, Mandi!

This is my first post with a video. This one is entitled, "Charlotte and Grandpa Share Their First Drink". It was taken at Olive's 1st Bday party.




More to follow. Hope you enjoy it!
