She’s probably going to kill me someday for posting these, but I know other moms will appreciate the Halloween photo that wasn’t meant to be. I tried to get a group shot before heading to the Fall festival this past weekend, and it ended up being one of those moments that makes you want to cry while it’s happening but laugh hysterically when you look back. . .
I’ll just call this series of photos “DJ Lance Throws a Hissy Fit”:
To be honest, I can’t even remember what she was so mad about. . .
hillarious! Sterling went as DJ Lnace last year, my parents were so confused like who is he supposed to be? Love that last picture, she posed but is still mad! haha!
Oh my! Love your family! You are blessed….but you already knew that….I only have 2 of my 4 that still dress up, and I am trying to capture every last second of it! Happy Halloween Clark family!~Kim
Well we all know who the real showstopper is in the family! We all have one- mine just happens to look like Batman this year, not DJ Lance :)
One Thanksgiving we took a picture of my 3 girls with their cousins and my mother. I thought it would be a nice family picture until my youngest daughter had a hissy fit crying and carrying on. I took the picture anyway to show her years later. Yup, I went there.
Those pictures are so fantastic. Sort of way better than a totally posed picture since it really tells the story of the moment. Although, I have been there, trying to just get one picture and it is very frustrating at the moment!

Great pictures. Check out what I did with “old” halloween photos over at http://www.mabelandjean.com!
My siblings may not talk to me for years.
That is precious!So much better than “perfectly behaved” children.
haha, that is so funny, love the last one!
Oh good gracious alive did that make me laugh outloud. And look at your sweet babes looking right at the camera like pros. LOVE IT ALL!
Love it! These are better than the posed, everyone’s happy and smiling ones anyway:)
Love it!
Too funny!
Ahhh…. I love her!
Awwwww…..love this
Epic!! I would totally frame the last one.
The last one is my favorite. These are classic. :)
So cute!!!!!

Emily- that is HIL-arious!! Your kids are precious.
Photos such as these make the most wonderful memories! I can’t imagine life without photography. Love your blog BTW.
Too cute! Happy blog anniversary, by the way!
Absolutely love this! What a crack up!
One word for this…Hilarious! I know it wasn’t to you at the time, but looking at the pictures, I feel like I am getting a little glimpse into my life lived by someone else.
OMG!! Hilarious!! I live in NYC and after reading countless news articles about all the damage inflicted by Sandy, this post made me laugh! Your kids are SO cute!
I love these pictures!!! And love your blog btw :)
That last one is hilarious! I’m just impressed everyone is looking at the camera, especially the babies. I have more profile pictures of my kids than anything. Even if they are facing the camera their eyes are looking to the side. I need to start cutting and pasting heads in photoshop!
So funny! Love your older daughter’s expression in the third photo…looks like she’s rolling her eyes at little sis. The last one is definitely portrait worthy! One of our favorite family portraits is my little sister when she was two-all dressed up and frilly with the biggest pout on her face! Such a sweet family!
I love memories like this! It’s the truth and I love that you’re keeping it real :)
I love it! I totally know what you mean about the crying then laughing – it happens a lot to us moms huh?
That is HILARIOUS! I love your kids costumes, blue man and dj lance rock are the best!!!

Hope they get to Trick or Treat tonight? I remember those tantrums, out of sight, out of mind when theyre over!

Those are precious!!! And so nice to know other people have epic fails when it comes to multi-children group shots. The last one is a framer.
ROTFL! That is so cute. You know what’s scary, the twins are in the background taking notes :)
That is soooo true. This could be scary!
hilarious — that is a nice hissy fit! have fun tonight!!
How sweet! :) Your twins are getting so big. Tantrums always come at the best times, right? :) But you’re right- you always laugh about it later, just not in the moment. :)
This is TOO funny! I was with my niece over the weekend, and she threw a huge tantrum at the park. Arched back, beet red, the whole enchilada… she’s only two but I couldn’t help but laugh. Happy Halloween!

Love this! I feel like that is the story of my life right now with my daughter. The last picture is so priceless. :)
My 10 year old is home sick today and we both just laughed so hard at this…especially that last picture!!! I have 3 kids and if I had twins, I’m pretty sure my 6 year old Lilly would be just like your 3rd child. Save that last one for her senior slide show! Just too funny!!!
LOL! They are so cute and yes even the one who is throwing a hissy fit! These are the photos that you’ll love when they are older.
Too cute! Happy Halloween!
She’s mad because she’s not the baby any more! What cute children you have. The last photo is truly priceless.
Too funny! That last one is priceless.
Perfect! Great memories to look back on!
We have ALL been there, but one day they will ALL thank you for these photos…WONDERFUL MEMORIES
Love the costumes! The babies are getting so big!
So funny! I’m sure she doesn’t remember what it was too… Wow the babies are getting so big. I hope the children had a wonderful time.
DJ Lance steals the show! I LOVE her!!!!
Oh my gosh–that is awesome. Haha!! Too funny and adorable!! Haha. She stole the show for sure!! They all look great!
This is hilarious and reminds me of my second daughter. We are always begging her to Puh-lease just get in the picture and smile. We have many pictures of her red-eyed and/or frowning. :)
Well, Miss Emily, you’ve done it again. Made me laugh AND made me feel normal.
Camille
Last pic is the best family shot I’ve seen in a while! Also love the first one – you will absolutely adore those pics when she is older. She’ll be mortified for a while but eventually find them funny!
Haha tooo adorable! Hope you guys had a fabulous halloween! Xo
