Family update

Out to lunch in Napa, my FIL took photos of our little clan. Most of the photos actually looked something like this one.

But then, we lucked out and got this one!



It's funny...a part of me wants some fancy shmancy family portraits. But, truly...that's not who we are. I love this special memory of our day in downtown Napa...wiggly kids and all.

Cute photos! I like the top one -- it's so unscripted.

Some of the best pictures are those that just happen. Getting the big portrait deal is too much stress.

My husband was just commenting on that very thing - how it's odd to walk into someone's house and see a beautiful family portait with everyone sitting nicely, and then to hear screaming and see crazy kids running all over. Makes you wonder, Who's in the picture?
I like wiggly pictures.

I love your family pictures. I agree it's better than any family portrait. I think the top one is so fun!

Oh what a beautiful family!! So nice to meet you :) I'd take wiggly kids over portrait sitting, not easy to keep 3 still that long while they place everyone...lol besides the first pic shows who you all are, look like a fun family!!

Awesome! Totally frame worthy, even if it's not fancy schmancy professional photographer!
