As with laundry and family pictures, every worthwhile goal has an undesirable element to it that keeps people from doing it too frequently. Here are some of our attempts at a Family/Benjamin's 4th/Baby Sam's 6 mos/Halloween/Christmas Card photo shoot. It was an early, and very cold morning out at Gardner Village.
It went really well in my mind; get family pics and Halloween pics, all in one shot, with good early morning light, and a pre-decorated background. In reality, we had to fight runny noses, kids playing with the hay (PUT THAT DOWN!), costume changes with stuff that was ever "back at the car," and the irresistible roar of the river that kept Sam from facing forward. AAAARRGGFG! But what's done is done, and I'm glad to be on this side of it. Who knows how long it'll take for us to recover though, enough to do it again. Thanks to my Cousin Faye Wilson for being so patient! And freezing her fingers off... we are ever so grateful!!

Awwwwe! Now I REALLY want to meet baby Sam! I noticed you got some warmer clothes for the munchkins :)
Darling! You look great, and I am so happy you are in Utah! :) She got some excellent pictures!
I came to leave a comment and saw that I already had! Just kidding! This is Danika P. here, just to clarify!
I love having family photos done, but hate doing them. Our new ones should be posted on my blog later this week. I stick to JC Penney (indoors) for now - my kids would NEVER sit still and look in the right direction outside!
fantastic! Love the location - actually looks like fall. Lucky.
So cute! And you all coordinate so well! Does Benjamin EVER take a bad picture? I love his smile, it's contagious. Props to you for getting the family up and to West Jordan by 8:30am on a Saturday....more than I can do!
