Photo Editing

So Wayne doesn't want to spend the money to hire a photographer for our family pics this year, well either do I. So i've been working on my photoshop skills. Yeah I pretty much don't have any. I got a book and i'm trying to learn all the cool tricks. I don't like a ton of editing I just want to learn how to improve my pics a lil. Here are a few that I did a couple things to. I think our family one turned out pretty good. If anyone has any good tips that may not be in my book please share.
