FAMILY PICTURES!!

I am sooo nervous waiting to get our Family Pictures back!! We haven't done a nice family picture since Sophie was born.

This year we brought our couch.

(which you just know Bruce was grumbling about...)

Thank you to Ashlin's friend CariAnn,

who came with her truck to help...

I am going to have to say that we had so much fun. Last year half the family was crying when we tried to take a family picture for a Christmas card. This year I vowed to have a different experience and keep spirits high. I told the kids we were like models at a photo shoot. During the individual shots, we were honestly laughing and kept saying

"Work it, Work it!"

Elena the Photographer was awesome.

The lighting and colors were beautiful...

The reward for good behavior...

going out to eat as soon as we finished.
