Last month, we had professional photos taken of our crew of 8. Â A gal who has an insanely popular blog and growing photography business came into town and met us at a local park in town. Â I’m THRILLED with the two sneak peeks she posted on her blog today. Â The rest, in the form of a CD, are in the mail as I type. Â Can’t WAIT to see them all!
The tree picture was the kids idea. Â MckMama (as she’s known on her blog) said cool, as long as we were okay with them climbing a crazy tall tree. Â The littles had to stay grounded, per this mama. Â I love it…the big kids are all posed and stuff, L and D are just goofing around, and mom and dad are…uh..a little distracted. Â A nice visual of our own “family tree”.
I wasn’t so sure when she suggested this shot. Â My first thought was “glad I painted my toe nails”. Â Little did I know she’d widen the shot, and L and D would be grinning away. Â Love it.
I’ll be sure and post more, once that CD is in my hands!

The Family Tree…how clever!! (Lainey looks like she’s disappointed that she couldn’t climb up like the “Bigs”!) You guys did a great job on the color scheme of your outfits…they look great! (At least this last photo reveals that you all wore flip flops..=)
Like you, we can’t wait to see the rest once you have the CD…If it’s in the mail, we all should be viewing the rest of the shots soon!

I love the “Family Tree” too and love the color scheme for your outfits. If, after having 6 children to raise, you and Randy are still this much in love to be “smooching” under the tree… then I am happy and you all are truly blessed. It is a great thing for the kids to know that their parents do love each other and aren’t ashamed of this love. An even greater thing you all are teaching them is your love for God. As Randy’s Mom and as “Gram” to these 6 beautiful children… I consider myself blessed.

Love her ideas for our family photos! So fresh and interesting! I can’t wait to see your family shots either. (I’ve been secretly hoping to see them soon on here.)
You have such a beautiful family! God bless you all!
