A New Year! A New Family Picture that never made it in a Christmas Card!
















Andrew was baptized in December so I thought I would post this great picture of our family. The picture itself is a little crooked, but well - that seems to be like our family anyway and how crazy our house is, that it makes me feel normal to look at that picture. At least the kids all had matching Christmas outfits this year. A First for us,for even the boys had matching plaid ties with the girls' plaid dresses. We would definitely not be found in Better Homes and Gardens or on a Disney Cruise Line picture because there has Never been a time when ALL of us are looking at the camera at the same time. This is very normal, I tell myself. All mothers struggle getting their kids to pose for a family picture. THAT is why computer programs were created to change features on a photo, but by the time I could figure out how to do all that and take the time to do it, my house would be a wreck and who knows what food would be on the ceiling.


Have a Great day!

I love coordinating at Christmas time. There are very few of us left that can pull it off, especially with so many kids. Did you make those skirts for the girls? I love them.

Happy Baptism to Andrew!
ANd personally, I am wildly jealous that you managed to A. find the time to get matching outfits for all of your kids B.manage to put them all on and brush all of their hair and C. manage to keep them all still long enough to get a good shot. Notice that I still do not have a family picture and it is because of reasons A,B, and C. YOu rock!!!
