 We went out to buy a Christmas tree... I could not get the kids to look up, because of all the reflection off the snow... except, of course, my six year old with his mighty Spiderman sunglasses.

We had a ball, picking a tree, playing hide-'n-seek in the aisles of the lot, and throwing snow at each other. Christmas is alot of fun:)

A couple more comments... this is shot at 68mm using my Sigma 18-200 OS Zoom. It seems to work pretty well and I am pleased that the colors and sharpness is superior to my old Sigma 18-200. A fun, versatile lens, for sure.

This is funny because it looks posed when it's not, as far as the kids looking down. Sounds like some great family time.

ahha .. some familiar faces in a different setting .. i loved your 'spokes' and this is another wonderful photograph of your children .. i really like how your son has his arms around his brother and sister .. a beautiful loving gesture .. (i'm hoping its his brother and sister, and not two brothers or two sisters!! .. no disrespect, but its sometimes hard to tell when they are this age and especially when they have big hats and sunglasses .. !! ... )..:)
