Photo Shoot

Yes - we are insane and we tried to have a photo shoot this past weekend. Not only was it almost 90 degrees - I have learned that it is pointless to try to get 4 children to look relatively normal, happy, you-name-it for a photo! But what did we accomplish??? Many laughs - the antics alone were almost worth it!! So this week I will try to share some of our best (or worst) moments!!!(In this one, we told Chloe to give the boys a hug - not strangle them!!)

We did a little shoot too.. but it was a little easier this time since it was the first time without our little furry children..
Have a Great Evening.

I am sooo over "perfect" posed pics...they don't capture our REAL lives anyway!
That picture is wonderful. They all look like they are just enjoying each other...and they look normal and happy too! Can't wait to see more!

That is a cute shot. It is tough to get a good picture when you have a large family. We will be going in late October to get our Christmas photos done.

I have a few pictures of Peter being strangled by Caroline too. He's making the same face too. :)

Monkey Giggles said...

The boys look like they like being strangled *wink*

Lori said...

I love the real-life photos, no "say cheese" smiles, just whatever happens happens!

Rachael said...

It's a great photo!

I hear you on trying to get a good pic of 4...it's a near miracle when it turns out how you envisioned!

I am, usually a lurker, but had to say I so understand what you mean about the looking happy part. Its my biggest challenge to get everyone lookiing good at once. I was so glad when they came up with these new Christmas cards that you can use several photos instead of one with everyone. One time I took pics of my 4 and my daughter 4 at the time said mommy why do we all ook so sad??
(becasue mommy is screaming at everyone to look happy and smile!;))

When you are harvesting your crops and forget to bring in a bundle of grain from your field, don't go back to get it. Leave it for the foreigners, orphans and widows. Then the LORD your God will bless you in all you do.
~Deuteronomy 24:19
