family foto

I was a little reluctant to relinquish control...
But my new BFF Kerry did a fabulous job taking these pictures of our brood...

It was easy,
fun,
fast,
friendly,
and fabulous.

Thanks Kerry!! I love them. And now I have way more sympathy for those people who don't want to look at me while I am shooting them. :) scary. No, Kerry. It wasn't your hair.

After family pictures last night, we decided to use some gift cards and go out to dinner. All of us. We haven't done that in a while. Too much chaos, right? So, we did. As we were getting ready to leave, Mercer peered over the little half wall to another booth.
"Mom! They didn't finish their food. AND they didn't clear their dishes!"

Poor child.
