John's many personalities

The other night John came home from work with a packet of his school photos in hand.   
In it was THIS 8x10 photo (which I think is soo handsome by the way) as well as several extra wallet size pictures.

I immediately pounced on the 8x10 picture, and carried it off for safe keeping, threatening to hang it on our wall above the piano next to the kids' school pictures:)    

The kids immediately pounced on ALL of the wallet size photos, each child pleading with John to let them have one of their very own.    I imagine John must have felt flattered, as he divided out those wallet size photos to all four kids, telling them that they could do whatever they wanted with them.  

 Perhaps they would lovingly hang one on their bedroom wall, or take one to school to show off to their friends?   

Nope.   
Apparently the kids had other plans in mind.

Like this:
Well done Nate!  His best scribbling to date:)

And last but not least- This:                       
(I found Abby's photos of John the next day.  She'd taped these photos to a piece of cardboard, with a string tied at two ends and hung it up on her wall.)    What you don't see is that above each face was a caption/name. 
  (Killer, Lady, and Evil Santa respectively;)           

I'll admit, this all had me laughing so hard as I gathered more and more of these pictures from various hiding spots.   
But it's got me kinda nervous too.

I'm pretty sure there is not a picture in this house that is safe from them now!
