Dec. 27 ~ A hard Lesson

Between ice storm, travels rescheduled, a ten hour drive from Guelph,

we finally had all 12 of us together for two hours.

I was very eager for a family photo, so I set up my tripod, turned on the self-timer,

but obviously I forgot the check my aperature! Note to self -

1. be more thorough with checking settings.

2. always take one photo on Auto,  just in case!
