Fun Family Photos

Okay, so we went on Saturday to have our family photos taken. It was a blast. The kids loved it and we all had a great time. We went to Wheeler Farm and met the cutest photographer ever! She was so awesome. I haven't gotten all the photos back yet, but you can get a glimpse of them on her blog...

I love the ones she has posted there...I just hope they all turn out that great. I stressed about what to have the kids wear and after all was said and done I loved how they looked. Little note about Liberty's skirt. Well, when I found those shirts for the boys I wondered what I would have Liberty wear, I rounded the corner of Old Navy (where I was shopping and found the shirts) I saw this little girls shirt out of the same fabric. I knew it wouldn't fit her but bought it anyway. Got it home and tried it on her and sure enough it was hanging off her shoulders and it wasn't going to work. While taking it off of her I had pulled it up over her head and was holding the shirt upside down and had this crazy thought that I could make it into a skirt. Well after some advice from some friends and a ton of help from a great gal at work everything worked out and look at how cute the shirt/skirt turned out! I love it. You'll be able to see it better when we get the other photos posted. I have to get back to laundry and homework. AHHH! Life doesn't stop for a mom! But hey, I love it.

Okay- those are darling. I can't wait to see the rest (and the skirt/shirt). I might have to break down a schedule a sitting for our family.

And I'm a spaz and don't know how to leave a comment. If once is good, twice is better, right? Sorry about that. Have a great week.

Way to be resourceful Cricket! Those are the cutest pictures! I love the one of the boys kissing her! So cute!

P.S.
I thought was naming your baby Arson? (hee hee!)

I meant "Cortney was naming HER baby..." Sorry. I guess Jan isn't the only one having trouble commenting today! :)

Arson is a close second, but I think Jack will just have to get over it!
