What an Experience

Well, we were adventurous and took pictures of my 3 kids and my nephew and 2 nieces (sisters kids) . What an experience trying to get 5 kids to smile and look at the camera at the same time. My daughter Cynthia who is 15 is pretty experienced at smiling and looking at the camera while me and the photographer try to get the boys to look and smile so she looked great in all the pictures. Evan has discovered that he can crawl behind the backdrop so I told the photographers that we needed to keep him contained(hence the sleigh). All in all it was pretty fun, but there was not one pic that was so great we had to have it. I think that was the hardest part. Everyone did not look great in one pic, we would have 5 looking great and one not etc. But these were my two faves. The one without the sleigh is the one that we chose. We will be doing this again next year since my brother and sister n' law will have a new baby, which will bring the total for my parents up to 7 grandkids.

Cynthia 15 1/2 (almost 16)
Nathan 9 1/2 (almost 10)
Celeste 7
Gabriel 6 1/2 (almost 7)
Mia 5
Evan 3
