My Brother is Going to Kill Me for This....

I cannot help it, I love taking compromising photos of family members and friends. I have some doozies that I took before the digital age that are absolutely fantastic of both of my little brothers. I'm sure they dreaded when mom and dad would leave me to baby sit because as soon as they walked out of the door they knew I was going to spring one of a few different options on them: homework (I really liked pretending to be a teacher), a dance of some sort...usually to Janet Jackson's Black Cat, making them eat my "creations" (usually consisting of flour, water and sugar with a drop or two of food coloring stuck in the microwave for a minute) or taking pictures.

At a certain point I think it became just a family tradition that I'm allowed to get absolutely awesome pictures of my siblings and parents that they later wish that I would burn. I have a few of my dad that I won't post because I'm sure I would be left out of some sort of inheritance...but, I found some classics of my little brother Logan. Let me set the stage, its Christmas 2003...or maybe 2004 and I have just gotten a new camera....I think that would make it 2004. After taking all sorts of pictures of the Christmas tree and family things I asked Logan if he'd come with me to Clearfield High to take some pictures with some snazzy pink gloves. The results are spectacular:

I like to think this is the predecessor to Blue Steel.

I cannot remember how he got up on the C, but he did it and he was proud of it.

I think in this picture, he's contemplating his high school career that would be starting the next year. Deep thoughts.......

There are so many more...but I just don't dare post! Oh Morgan, dear Morgan, you have been the best of all to take pictures dressed up, you have never shied away from dressing up like the boy and sporting a unibrow and whiskers......

Am I, (and my cousin Breanne) the only one that has subjected family members to this? I am not being rejected by my little brothers for any photo opps like this. I beg and I plead but neither will relent. Apparently they grew out of my power as the oldest.

HAHAHAHA! I LOVE the pink gloves! I wish we had copies of Morgan posed on our trip to Washington, do you remember? lol!

Oh my goodness, I am going to have to go and look. I know I have those somewhere!!!!

Nothing tops Morgan with the unibrow. If only we were old enough to have cameras during the days we were writing plays.
