It was pretty much like that all day long.
Biggie said, "Oh, no. My nose is itching."
*Flash*
"Sorry."
Barb was straining a smile until it fell into a scowl.
*Flash*
Trollzart's hair was messed up by the wind.
*Flash*
A bee came by and freaked everyone out.
*Flash*
This time, it started raining.
Branch said, "That figures. The weather report was for clear skies and temps in the 80's."
Everyone collapsed from exhaustion.
Branch once again set up the camera.
"Everyone say cheese."
Barb said, "I keep saying cheese and not getting any."
"Cheese!"
Everything looked ok this time...up until a shutterbug came by and photobombed.
*Flash*
Branch said, "No comment."

When Branch set up the camera, he asked, "Alright. Now, before I start the timer, is everything ok? No rain showers imminent?"
King Quincy said, "Not a cloud for miles."
"No one's nose itches?"
Barb said, "I scratched mine already."
"Nothing's going to interrupt us?"
The area was surrounded by bug traps and fly paper.
Poppy said, "Nothing's going to interrupt us."
Branch then said, "Ok, I am starting the timer."
Everyone said, "Cheese."
However, a pizza delivery guy came by, "Someone order an extra large pizza with pepperoni and mushroom?"
Barb went after it with everyone trying to stop her.
*Flash*
Everyone decided to just stop and have the pizza.
Barb said, "Well, you can't have me think of cheese all day and expect this not to happen."
Just then, Poppy looked at the camera, "Bad news, everyone; I just looked at the film and we only have one picture left."
Everyone groaned.
Even worse, a huge bird came by and snatched the camera.
Poppy laughed hysterically until Branch said, "Poppy, I think we're putting too much effort into this. It's only a photo. I'm sure your dad will love seeing all of us together no matter how we look."
Poppy realized he was probably right, "Ok. Let's just do our best and no matter what happens, just remember to be happy. I'm sure Dad will love it."
Everyone was happy to hear that.
*Flash*

Peppy's birthday came.
Poppy gave him the photo, "Happy birthday, Dad."
Peppy examined the photo, "Poppy, this is the most wonderful photo I've ever seen!"
The photo was everyone having a fun time, and was joined by all the critters who interrupted them.
