Photo Shoot!

December 5, 2010

Ah!

Finally time to take Christmas Card pics..

I love it..

I dread it..

I procrastinate it..

{okay, what don't I procrastinate?}

{you don't have to answer that..}

..she's so dimply in these two!!

LOVE IT..

..love the hand-holding in this one..

Some pictures SCREAM sepia to me..

Like this..

And especially this one..

..in their preferred state..

Next 3 photos?

My FAVORITES..

..do I have cute girls

or what??

..they live for the silliness..

..looking pretty happy to be frisked..

..warriors I, II, & III..

..just the pose for a historic pioneer home..

Always time for a jumping picture or two..

The finished product..

THANKS!

GIVING!!!

Thanksgiving has always been a "big deal" to my family..

We love it..

This usually includes travel to Boise..

{minus the year I was pregnant with Adi,

and the year Meredith was pregnant with Bea}

Well -

That has all changed..

We have officially moved Thanksgiving to UTAH~

..to be more exact,

Springville!!

..meaning WE are the hosts!!

We were so excited to have my parents

and Meredith's family here with us!!

Now, for a little back story..

Meredith and I have issues..

Not BAD ones..

We just can't seem to get a good picture of our kids together..

Go back to the beginning..

Meredith's wedding..

I know this was a picture she had looked forward to..

..pretty sure this wasn't what she expected..

{granted, this was taken at the end of a very long day..}

We tried to change this..

Especially since all 5 Richards' kids were here this year..

Take a looksee..

{you'd think - not bad..

too bad Sam is missing..}

{we had 3 cameras going off

simultaneously,

hoping for a random good shot..}

{Bea escapes for a moment..}

{um.. Dave? Mere?}

{just look at that cute Adi}

WAIT!

Did you want to see the winner?

Our very favorite of the bunch?

The one we have enlarged?

The one that shows the true "feeling" of this shoot?

Here you go..
