...But are so worth it in the end. Thanks to Kim.
Who knew we could make a field of weeds look so great?
I'm loving the San Tan Mountains in the background.
I'm so glad we had the day off of school so we could get ourselves ready for the pictures. Vance had a band gig that night, but was pretty willing to stay to the end, even though he was later than anticipated.
(Thanks Vance)
I love this picture, cause it is so exactly what everyone looks like if Ben or I show too much PDA at home.
I don't know why QCHS thought it was a good day to schedule a decathalon on the football field, or why Combs couldn't prepare the grass in anticipation of this day, it was supposed to be the perfect backdrop for this family picture, since track and field and football are the mainstay of our family entertainment. But, the beautiful baseball field worked just as well. I need a great title for this one, here is the working one:
I don't care what is going on around me as long as we are together...and Ben worships me:)
I love all the individuals, can't wait to enlarge them and get them on my wall.
Vance - 17
Marly - 15
Drew - 13
Skylar - 11
Katy - 9
Tawny - 6 (7 next month)
Anny - 21 months
Derek - 3 months
I don't have a lot of pictures of Ben and I together because 1 - I'm usually the one taking the pictures, and 2 -I'm not that comfortable with too much PDA, but bless Ben's heart, even though he isn't either, he was really trying.
I also try to not bring particular attention to the fact that Anny is missing most of her fingers, but I also don't want to hide it. I think finding the balance is important. I just love this picture and I hope someday she is glad she can see how her hand looked as she grew up.

Great family pix!! Such a beautiful family. :)
Congratulations! Preparing for family pictures is no small undertaking and they turned out so beautifully! While I don't know your children well, you can see each individual personality shining through these pictures.
What beautiful pictures!! Cute family.
You all look fabulous!! Thanks for sharing the pics:)
I LOVE them!! What a great family. I love the blue and yellow colors you chose.
Those are great pictures! Beautiful family!
OH MY HECK could your family be any more gorgeous ! It's so cool how you all just fit together. You all look like you belong together : ) And You have BEAUTIFUL children. I am jealous because I would have loved to have a big family like you have. But I don't think it's in the cards for us.
The pictures turned out great, you all look just perfect : )
Priceless! Those pictures are fantastic. You all look really great!
Loved 'em all! The only thing that could've been better is if in the "hobby" photo you would've been nursing baby D. (I'm kidding.) I think I've told you about my bro who cut off one of his hands and had it "sewn" back on...but it is very mamed. In one of our family photos the photographer asked my mom if she wanted him to airbrush it out. Dumbest photorgrapher ever. Would we airbrush anybody else's body parts out?
You guys are so stinkin cute. You look like a little Vontrap family in the photo with everyone doing their talents. Adorable!
WOW! these are GREAT pics! love them all!
So, so, soooo cute!
I just spent 10 minutes looking at your beautiful family pictures! Your kids are so big. The boys look the same but bigger-the girls look so different and sooo much older. Marley is killing me! I know the stress of pictures is such a nightmare but atleast it was worth it this time:)
