Family Pictures = Family Chaos

We (okay, I) decided it was about time to capture our family in photos again. . . . we tend to go a long time in between. The last was 2 years ago. I'm not a big fan of having a studio do it (unless they are really good and not corny), so we gave it a go ourselves, with the help of my sister, Jenni. Good sport, she is! Everyone did relatively well, except for Max (who wanted to play "hide-seek" more than "sit-smile"). His patience was gone after about 3 shots. Oh well. Jenni took the family photos, while I did the individual--kudos to her for her photography skills. Here's a few (probably a few too many for most of you, but we have the grandmas to consider!):








*The only individual photo of Max without snot or a scowl. He's more of an "action model".


*Ryder was certainly the most animated--he made this weird face in about 1/2 of the photos. What a ham.

Love Olivia's haircut, love the photos!
I'm impressed. On Friday you say "Maybe I'll call Jeni to take our photos." And bam, wham, done like 3 days later! I had to plan for months to get our photos taken, and we only have 3 in the family!
You are amazing Shar.

We are gearing up for those in a couple of weeks. Maybe I'll lose 20 pounds by then....you never know.

I can't get over Ryder's EYES--yowsa!

These look great Shar!!! Your family is so photogenic! Did I spell that right???? On another post, the pumpkins that Rich did are great too!!!
I'm excited to move to Utah. It really must be something about the Olympic home to sell so fast???? I'm just so glad it sold! We definetly would love to see you guys. We will call when we are settled. We will be living with my parents until we find a home. Should be interesting :)
