In Which My Brothers Strike A Pose

I have trained and trained my little brothers for years to pose for pictures. Believe me, it was work. Training usually took place during the evenings that I was left to babysit for my parents. My little brothers would get three options:

1.) Learn a dance, believe me, Janet Jackson's Black Cat tape was well used in our house.
2.) Play school - usually, equally as hated as Black Cat dancing
3.) Pose in some ridiculous fashion for my camera.

Don't let them fool you, they would choose posing. I can see why they got tired of pretending to be the black cat in Janet's music video, and I can really see why math on the weekends didn't appeal, but posing for the camera meant feats, amazing feats. I wish I could find some of my old pictures of us doing some serious stuntage. Seriously, cheerleaders could have learned something from us.

By the time my little brothers reached elementary school, the fruits of my labors paid off. Need I remind anyone of these pictures of Logan?

Two weekends ago when we went to Thriller, we took a short pause to stop off at Snow Canyon to take some family pics for the annual Christmas card. I was rewarded ten-fold when my little brothers, without any coaching from myself both posed this way for some pictures.



I do believe this captures the "essence" of Garret.



A similar strut on Logan.

I am in heaven.
