I finally discovered my friend
Isabelle's secret to her awesome picture collages, and I'm making the most of it!
Here are several groupings of our family pictures. Our photographer was my long-time good friend
Lavinda, who does photography for a living. Here is her
blog and
website.

This is a collection of the best of the
family and small group shots taken.

Here are the best shots of
Elizabeth. A lot of them were attempts at head shots. Matt would
love to see her onscreen. We'll see what happens!

Here are the
Kael shots. There were
so many good ones. He looked great in every shot we got. I only left out the ones where you couldn't see his face.

And here is
Tristan. He would not give up that Dogga (his name for it) for anything! And it was super difficult to get him to stay still. Or smile. So it was hard to get them, but once we got the shots, they were nothing shy of
AWESOME!So there you have it. We had those done in May, I think it was... or June? July... oh I can't remember. Two or three weeks later, I completely changed my look, Matt had grown a goatee, and the kids had grown. I almost felt like I needed new pictures! Haha! Next year!
