Well I got the shot that I was told on Tuesday I wouldn't get. In fact he was quite agreeable with the first one, but not so much on the second one. First day of grade 12 for Ben, he was at rugby tryouts/training camp the first two days which is why he is sporting the scrape across the bridge of his nose. Only fitting since today was also picture day at school!

Oh my gosh I am laughing out loud at the last picture of Ben. I have seen that look so many times, love it! Great pictures and he has the look. Tracey I love your card it is so stunning! Gorgeous colors! Wow! Still laughing.
Very pretty card. Really feels like Autumn. I was wondering of you had gotten to RS today or not, and now I see that you did, and with such style. Love the pictures of Ben. The second one definitely has that look I am so familiar with--oh, mom, really, again.
Stunning card, Tracey! I love everything about this design. Thanks so much for stopping by during the Paper Smooches September Sneak Peeks Hop!

This is a winner for sure Tracey...gorgeous! Ok the first picture he seems to sort of be cooperating! And the second one looks like "come on mom enough already!" CUTE ;)
This is gorgeous, Tracey! The layers, the colors, that fabulous bow - all perfect for autumn. :)
He SO has that "please Mom, not another picture..." look in the second photo! BOYS! So glad it's not only mine! This card is so pretty, Tracey! Love the use of these colors:) *hugs*
What a wonderful photo of your son...he is so handsome. I too took pictures on the first day of school but once my daughter started college that all changed, to "really mom" so I stopped. Your card is just stunning and beautiful and those fall colors are just perfect, love it!
GREAT colors you've used Tracey! So warm and comforting. Love seeing pics of your kids too : )
Beautiful card! Love the color choices.
Great card, I love that gorgeous autumn flower! You got one good picture of your son & I hope he had a great first day in his senior year! My senior yr in high school was probably one of the best years of my life!
Tracey, this card is stunning. Really, really beautiful! I love how simple it is, but it packs such a punch. Fantastic! And great photo of your son. ;-) Hope he has a great year!
LOVE this fall card ~ great colors and layering with the lovely layers. Ben is quite handsome. When my son doesn't want his picture taken, I get a totally silly face ~ with his tongue sticking out. Perhaps boys have a one good picture limit!
Stunning card Tracey! I wasn't ready for fall either but the cooler weather does feel good.
Great shot of your son - and I love your card! I'd love for you to link up at 52 Card Pickup this week.
