Our oldest son was home from college this weekend and I suddenly realized it might be my only chance to get a new family photo for our homeschool yearbook. We grabbed the tripod and gathered around the couch, about as impromptu as you can get.
Capturing ten people in a photo using a tripod and not expecting a lot of hanky panky? Unrealistic at best. At least with this crew.

My favorite pictures are always the ones with hanky-panky involved. Because, really, that is life 🙂
And for some reason I guess I never realized you all had 4 boys and 4 girls. I’m sure people remark on the perfection of that. And I am equally sure you planned it that way – ha!

Great shots, Dawn! I think these are much more fun than the perfectly posed and coordinated pix anyway. You’ll have better memories from these, don’t you think? It’s also great to see your whole family again! The kids sure are growing. 😀

Great shots! I love the second one the best – the gray scale I think really helps to capture everyone’s personalities.

Great photo! I love all of the personalities displayed. 😉
So cute. I have been playing with the white balance and manual settings on the Cannon today. What else can you do on bedrest? Besides eat leftover birthday cake and get your kids to wait on you, that is. I can’t wait to show you the neat photo I got. Not sure, but I may save it for next WW.
