family pictures {2009}

Oh boy! First of all, THANK YOU to my sister-in-law, Jess who sacrificed her time a few weeks ago to take our pictures. She does such and amazing job. My children were so naughty that this is the only family picture that kind of works. Not to mention me and Nate being sidetracked every two seconds by someone. Kaden was the hardest that evening. You would think a 6 year old would have more self control than a 2 year old..... not the case that day! All the lecturing and bribing in the world couldn't get everyone to cooperate at the same time. Oh well. That's life and I won't lose sleep over it. We'll be adding another little one in a few months, so we'll have another shot at this anyway!


I needed individual portraits so very badly and we accomplished that. (See pics to the right.) And we ended up with a lot of candid shots that I actually LOVE. (See header, too.) So all in all it was a success.
