Thank you girls! The day actually started out as a mess. The appointment was not confirmed until Sunday morning, the day of the pictures. It was actually a last minute thing because the photographer was going out of town soon. We were all supposed to wear white shirts... but you see how well that went. LOL Kaitlyn was supposed to wear a skirt with me but it was in the dirty laundry. I was a stressed out mess the whole morning.


But.... at least you can't tell in the pictures. The only bad thing is that Nathan's shirt is wrinkled. I grabbed it from his room when I couldn't find his white shirt and didn't realize it needed to be ironed.

Thank you for all the compliments. I/we (LOL) appreciate it. Although I would never dream of telling my husband someone thinks he's good looking, he doesn't need any more of an ego boost! Haha!

Until you just now pointed out the wrinkled shirt, I hadn't even noticed! LOL! I was looking at their faces!

I agree beautiful family, like all the pictures. love the tress across the hihgway as backdro in the last two pictures. nathan's shirt is jut fine. I have a pictures where my daughter stocking was nto pulled up straight it was sagging. her grandmother calls it a natural picture, wasnt' rehearsed just her being her, beinbg captured in her the essence of her being. At the time ( I was only 21) so I was sayign to myslef you just triying to make me feel good aobut the picture, but today at 34 I can agree, we don't well I dont' always have tiem to rehearse everything and sometimes we are caught on photograph being ourslef, looking liek ourslef. And those are the one that I cherish the most.

Your pictures are beautiful.

I think they look great. Very "natural" and just the type of pictures I prefer. I didn't notice the shirt until I went back up to look after you mentioned it. I like the one of you guys walking away and the throwing shot too.

The kids have gotten so big...
