You already know that Erik stopped the car to snap a picture of the whole family together. But, he also wanted to take a few candid photos. So, he photographed his kids when they weren’t looking. His daughters realized what their father was doing, and wanted to see the pictures he had taken. So, they took his phone and looked through the photos. But, when they looked down at his camera, they both cracked up because they realized that their dad had been filming the whole time and not taking pictures, as he had intended to do.
Classic dad mistake. Erik acted very surprised that he made such a mistake.
Selfie Time
After all their children had calmed down and settled in their seats, Erik put the car in drive and they started on their way. However, about one mile down the road, Erik suddenly stopped the car. His family, not understanding his reasoning, complained about how he had stopped without even telling them. Then, Erik reached down for his cell phone and told his family to stop whining and that he wanted to snap a family selfie. Once his children quieted down, the family huddled closely together and smiled.
It was a great picture to capture the sweet moment.
Memories
Erik wanted to snap selfies of the family for several reasons. Of course, he wanted the pictures as memories of the family's time together. But, he also wanted it for his son. At the time, he was working on a scrapbook for his son. He wanted to fill the scrapbook up with pictures, tickets, schedules, and anything else that he could gather which would add to their story. The family selfie would be a perfect addition to the collection because it showed off the family's close bond and hilarious personality.
It was too bad that Erik's daughters weren't dressed their best, as they chose the look of comfort for their road trip, which makes sense.
Oops, My Bad
When the girls made their father aware of his mistake, he said "Oh, shoot." But still, his mistake only added to the funny situation and you can see from all of the kids' faces that they were enjoying their time together. Erik was good at taking his mistake lightheartedly and making a joke out of it.
While Erik continued filming his family, the family noticed something unusual all of a sudden. What was about to happen next was going to leave the family in complete shock.
Guess Who Coming?
While the Richter children were laughing at their father for being technologically inept, suddenly, a dark figure popped up behind the car. The family hadn't noticed his presence at the beginning because the person intentionally disguised himself so as to surprise the family.
When the person revealed his identity, the Richters thought that they were imagining things.
