Family Pictures

Right before we left Saba, we convinced our friend Amanda to spend her last day on the island taking pictures of our family (thanks Amanda!!).

Mostly the whole morning looked like this:
Jaron and I wrangling 3 youngins, trying to get them to look at the camera, let alone smile.  This is a very difficult task when you don't have someone drawing their attention from behind the camera!  But we managed to get a few where everyone is (pretty much) looking at the camera, even if someone's foot is in the air or someone else is making a face.
At the end of the whole episode, Momma doled out m 'n ms to the kiddos for being so good during the shoot.
Then we played at the park where the pictures were taken.

Your family is so cute, and I love Gracen's dress!
I love that there are photographers to choose from now that do candid shots instead of just the "studio" photos we had growing up.

Heavens Becky! These pictures are fabulous. (and I'm pretty sure one of the few families that will have pictures together on a beautiful caribbean island!)
They're so great!
(P.S. You look amazing mother of 3!)

Cute! I love Gracen's dress and I love the picture with the boys in the tree! If you ever get bored in Idaho you can always take a trip and visit us in Casper! :)

Cute Pics! I love pictures even when kids aren't looking and being themselves. We just got ours done and I think that is how 95% of the pictures were. We should get together.
