We Try......

......we really do. But it seems when you have five kids, that it is difficult to get everyone to look the same place at the same time with pleasant expressions and eyes open. Thanks to our wonderful friend Sarah who was very patient with our fussiness, grumpiness, lack of smiling, crooked heads, awkward smiles, and closed eyes (I think Isaiah did all of the above)! She did a fabulous job. Maybe we will do better in a few years when we are a little older. Until then, our family photos have tons of personality in them and I think they are perfect!! I hope they make you smile as much as they do me!



















Oh! I have handsome boys!





I even love Isaiah's grumpy look in this one!

I thought it was a rule of family photos that some be looking the wrong way, or not smile or close eyes etc! Just kidding, they all look great. My favorite is the sixth one down, vertical shot by the tree. And love your cute short hair too!
