Family Pics

Our nice neighbors down the street have this lovely rock wall they said we could use as a backdrop for family pics and since my mom was coming for Halloween, we had a free photographer as well! I'm learning bit by bit how to have more successful freebie photo shoots...

This is the runner up...I like the sitting arrangement much better (even better would be Ari sitting in Jaydon's lap), but the light was a little off, most of the smiles are a little more contrived & Tony's glasses have a glare...so onward & upward to the chosen one...

Family photo sessions are always soo much 'fun' since I'm the only one who wants to be having it...but at least we got some good smiles! However, during one of the pics suddenly Tony started 'aaaaaaAAA-ing' apparently this guy was climbing up his warm pant leg!

and then there was the neighbors' dog who wanted to play fetch so we threw his ball and quickly snapped a picture before he scampered back...

But at long last, here it is: the smiles are better (Rhett's wandering eyes are a bonus :) but if only I had looked at the arrangement through the lens or after one of them was taken...and poor Maeser is drowning in his too-big jean jacket, but by jingo, it was either that or have him freeze in the chilly air...

The individuals were pretty durn cute too





We have 5 kids! How did that happen?!
