FAMILY PHOTO SHOOT

*WARNING* There is a gross amount of photos in this post, particularly of myself. So back in January before Phil's little sister, Jaimie, left on her mission, we had a little family photo shoot....or a large one, rather. We hit a variety of poses with every family combo possible and ended up with a lot of great shots to choose from. But I believe my favorite part of the whole process was the photographer's insistence on each of us getting individual portrait shots. I found it a rather funny (see below). I mean, who wouldn't jump at the chance to feel like a senior in high school again?

So the professional led out and the natural followed...

Then it was my turn...

...and ended up feeling a tad bit like a fish out of water and for the life of me couldn't quit laughing.

But don't worry, guys. I warmed up. I totally managed to pull it together in time to get my real estate agent shot and my album cover...

And of course, a little somethin' somethin' for Phil to frame and put by his bedside...

Grhhh!

Oh. And there were some other people there besides me. Here are my favorites from everyone together, followed by just our little family and of course, the true model of the hour, Ryder Roo.
