I surprised Karen with an early Christmas present Monday evening. When Karen came home from work the boys and I were dressed in our suits. We announced that we were taking her to the mall for a family photo and then off to dinner.

Karen has wanted a new family photo for several years, but it just never gotten done. Our family photo on the wall showed the boys when they were 5 & 7 years old.

We took Karen to the Dreamshots Photography store at the Montclair Plaza for a family photo. We were able to walk in and have out photos taken in less than 20 minutes.

We went from Dreamshots to dinner at Vince's Spaghetti house. Note, we went to a spaghetti dinner after the photos!!

Back at the mall we picked out our photos from the proofs and within 40 minutes had the photos. This photo was my favorite.
