Family Picture Shoot

I wanted to get a family picture to send in Christmas cards, but I never had a camera handy when we all looked nice and someone else around to take it. So I finally figured out how to use the timer aspect on my camera. Voila!
Then Dan's parents sent us all matching red outfits, so we wore them the Sunday before Christmas.
I liked the pictures, but was getting confused as to why they all seem so hazy. Then I found out while I was reviewing videos saved that Dan let Avery get her hands on the lens. Boy what a good cleaning will do!

Don't you just love their smiles? Their personalities shine through them!
The Sunday after Christmas my sweet family got to wear matching outfits again! I love it! One of my many Christmas sewing projects was to make family outfits for church. With the same material I made matching ties for the boys, Daddy included, and Avery and Mommy got matching dresses too. It was fun and not as big a project as I anticipated! There was no mistaking who belonged in our family! -not that they could really be mistaken for another family anyway. :)
