2012 Family Pictures

Back in September we had pictures taken with my side of the family.  These were especially important to me because of my mom't health uncertainties.  Anytime we are all together we have a great time....even during 2 hour long photo shoots. 

Jared Matthew, age 11

Jesse Michael, age 9 (but turned 10 just recently :)

Justin David, turned 7 shortly after these pictures

John Russel, 5 years

Judson Lee, turned 3 shortly after

Joshua Courage, 14 months in September

Josiah Christian, same as Joshua :)

I love this picture. :)

Family pictures can be a lot of work but well worth the effort. 

Birthday girls

These girlies had birthdays in September.  We were so glad to celebrate with them since we usually are not together near birthdays. 

Another reason to celebrate was how well all 11 kiddos did during a 2 hour photo session!!! And that would explain why we look so nice for lunch at McDonalds. :)  Family pictures can be exhausting...we were pretty much wiped out for the rest of the day.

Fun times when we are together!

Jud being Jud

This would sum up Judson's enthusiasm for life!  He is a wonderful blessing with a tremendous amount of energy....and curiosity.  I am amazed at how many "no-no's" there are in life as each new day begins with this boy! :)  And someday I will tell you what he did a couple of nights ago.  But not for a year or so....not until it can be one of those things you look back at and laugh. :)

Old Photos

I never posted the twins' two week old pictures.  It is hard to believe they are 5 months old now.  We are cherishing our time with these little guys.

Thankfully, our big boys don't change as much in five months. :)

Judson - 2 years (These are their current ages.)

John - 4 years

Justin - 6 years

Jesse - 8 years

Jared - 10 years
