My kids accept bribery. I’m not ashamed. I’m not even embarrassed. When it comes to my relentless pursuit of my own family pictures, I’m a pretty good bargain hunter.
For example … this picture cost me one sucker. I say who’s the sucker now kids?

And this one … two pennies. The kid drives a hard bargain.
Kate is wise to my ways and asked for TCBY . . . for two. Smart kid. She even made her own prop – the flower halo. I’m surprised that didn’t cost me an extra topping. I would have said yes.
Bribery or bargain? You decide. I say bargain because we will treasure these forever. Regardless, it’s a win win at my house. My kids are happy. I’m happy. A worthy investment!
P.S. Jay wants you to know these two were “freebies.” In fact, one was a BOGO with the hazy shot above 🙂
