Day 'o Photos

It was a big day for TEAM Rolfs as the girls headed back to school after a summer of adventure and fun.


Tanya was kind enough to hand me a list of suggested photo opportunities that I might happen to come across while getting the kids situated. I did my best, but amongst shoes that suddenly don't fit, fleece pullovers that just can't be worn over silky shirts and the sheer embarrassment of having your photo taken in public, my photos didn't achieve all the mandatory objectives.


Can you spot the serious defects in these pictures? Answers below.

Picture A:


Picture B:


Picture C:

Picture A is troublesome because why would someone want their first day of school picture taken when you can't even see the ensemble they wore? Next year the girls won't be allowed to wear coats on the first day of school.

Picture B simply has too much shrubbery in it.

Picture C simply doesn't have enough shrubbery in it.


It's a good thing I just do this for fun.


Mikayla started 6th grade and Alexia started 2nd grade.

Both made a couple of new friends and reported having a great time.


I am pleased to announce that everyone successfully rode the correct bus on the way home - and got off at the proper stop.


1 down and only 179 more mornings to go until summer.

Tanya took Mikayla to 4-H with Josie while Alexia went to soccer practice, followed by team photos.



Hopefully the professional photos turn out better than the one we received a few years ago where the back row of players appeared to be missing their arms. Here is a (really crappy) scan of that one:



If, by some chance, we ever end up needing additional pets, I'm going to propose we get some of these cool fainting goats.
