Easter: Easter Sunday

Kids and taking pictures. Sometimes I don't even know why I try! Well after Sacrament, we left Nana and Papa's church and headed back to take pictures in Easter outfits, eat and get ourselves packed and on the road.

Honestly, I had such difficulty getting a good shot of the kids. Declan just wanted to play with the grass. When he would look up, it wasn't to smile. The girls were wiggly and just hard to get a good shot of.

This is one of the only where they were all 4 looking up and had good faces . . . you just have to ignore Shelby's hands.


We tried for a different pose. The girls just erupted in giggles. Declan got squished a bit, but didn't care - the grass was just too interesting I guess.




Since Declan just wasn't working for us, we tried to get a shot of just the girls. It was nearing the end of the shoot and they were getting antsy.



Finally, we made them laugh to get some of them all smiling.



It was CRAZY getting these photos, but they were sooo cute in their Easter outfits!

Cute girls- your grad announcement was awesome. I hope Tom thanked you a bunch- that was a lot of cropping and stacking. Sorry we never got another picture. I feel your pain trying to get good pictures of everyone

These pictures are SO sweet! Such beautiful kids you have! Of course I totally understand what you went through to get these shots... but so worth it! I just love the one with all the girls leaning over looking at Declan while he's playing with the grass... it's such a sweet picture! And the last two pictures of all the girls are perfect, so cute!!

I'm sad we didn't get to see y'all on Sunday before you left, but your kids are adorable--as always when they wear pretty dresses.
We got the grad announcement--fantastic job! It tickled the scrapbooking side of me. ;)

Your girls are beautiful. Looking at pictures of them reminds me of you and your sisters back when we were growing up.
