Once a year, one of the girls in this family gets the incredibly 'bright' idea that we need a new family picture. It's too bad that the boys outnumber the girls so badly because, from the oldest to youngest, they throw a fit and you have to (literally) force dress them and drag them in front of the camera. This year was no exception. But it's over now.
ALL TEN BOYS
Clay was DONE!!!
Slowly we are gaining girls...Christine and Sandra...helping to add the gentle touch to all the rough and tumble.
So, we all smiled for the camera here. And then we went a couple of other places and took more. It was going as good as could be expected...Until a person watching from behind the camera (thanks Sylvia) said "Where's Miles???" Um. He was hiding in the van and had been missing from ALL of the family pictures. Words can't express how ANNOYED everyone was. All that pain, just to discover that we had to RETAKE the pictures.
Maria
Aud and Trev
Brady and Brock
Christine and her brother, Josh. Who might as well just be in our pictures, since he is as much a part of the family as everybody else.
Sandy and some of the brothers
Trevor
Marvin and Aud
Get one laughing and you got them ALL laughing.
Twins
Garth
This one has Marvin and Sandy in it. Not technically part of the family. Yet.
Logan and Sandy
Here we are. Sigh of relief. Don't have to do that again...until NEXT year!!!
