The scene behind my kids Christmas card photo shoot

This is how our last minute Christmas card photo shoot went since I decided I didn't want any of the gazillion pictures that I have of my kids this past year.
In order of events:

3:15 Pick up son from school. Realize my daughter is asleep. Deep sigh.
3:30 Arrive home. Tell son that I need a big favor and would like to do a photo shoot after he relaxes and eat a snack. Try to wake up daughter. No use.
4:00 Place props and camera in car.
4:10 Tell son to get on his photo shoot clothes. Realizing that he will grumble about the outfit, I immediately tell him that he can change his clothes after the photo shoot, and he will get something sweet for his modeling job.
4:12 Pick daughter up from her sleeping state and place her on the toilet. Hoping that she will go since I know she will need to in the near future. No such luck.
4:14 Dress, brush and curl daughter's hair while she is laying on her bed still wanting to sleep.
4:15 Load kids in the car.
4:25 Unload props at an uninhabited home.
4:26 Kids complain its too cold.
4:27 Daughter says she need to go the bathroom. Exhibit A:

4:28 Attempt to help daughter use the bathroom outside. Again no such luck.

4:30 Quickly take some pictures.

4:32 My heart races as a cop car siren goes off. I think I'm in trouble since I am trespassing on private property. The cop car races by. Whew.

4:33 Load up kids, props, and camera in car.

4:34 After driving 1/2 mile, daughter pipes up and says she is not buckled.

4:34 2 second later Pull over and buckle her car seat.

4:44 Pull into home, let daughter use the bathroom.

4:46 Arrive at gas station, fill up, and let kids choose a sweet of their choice.

4:50 Let kids eat a donut before dinner.

Let's see if I can make lemonade out of lemons. To be continued...........
