the sidlingers

A few weeks back, Daniel had pictures made at school.  I knew that they were being taken by one of those "novelty" places.  I think the exact phrase the information sheet used was ‘your child will look like they’ve been playing in Granny’s attic’.

The day the pictures were taken, I asked Daniel how it went.  He said that it was fun and that he got to be a boat captain, a fisherman and a Titan’s player.  I was still in the "Granny’s attic" frame of mind and was thinking a sailor suit, overalls and fishing pole and something like this for the football player.

Today when I was dropping him off, it was time to pick up the pictures.  When I saw them, I had to buy each pose because I knew I would not be able to fully convey the idea of each picture to anyone.  I wanted to share the laughs that I had when I first saw them (and I have been laughing ever since this morning, everytime I look at them…wait, you’ll see what I’m talking about).

So now, without further ado…I give you…

The Titan

The Fisherman

The Boat Captain

Everytime I look at the last one, the Love Boat theme plays in my head!
