A Whole Lot of Family...as in, lots of pictures.

My in-laws invited us to go on a super awesome beach vacation with them down south. It was beautiful and relaxing and fun. While we were there we took some family pictures. I pulled out my poor ignored tripod and made it feel useful again while getting some group pictures of the whole family.


I was testing my exposure and caught this little scene, which I really like for no good reason at all.


Kayla and cutie-pie little Aiden.




The whole family.








My little family.


Check out Madie!

All the grandkids.




Once again, check Madie out.

Yes, I'm making a funny face.







The waves were attacking.

The Girls


Me

So I wore these fugly shoes to walk down to the beach because they are oh so comfortable. Then I forgot to take them off when we started snapping pictures. Uug!

Nathan

He really looks nothing like himself here.

An odd attempt at posing just the kids.


























Bye-bye!

Party, Party, Party!

How awesome is it to have a friend that just volunteers to let you throw a birthday party for your own 2 kids at her house and invite over the whole family and said kid's group of crazy friends and said friend's husband goes through tons of extra work finishing lots of extra outdoor projects just to be ready for your party?

Pretty. Freakn'. Awesome!

This is the awesome friend! (Hi, Shaunika!)


















Abby was our only kid who actually hung out with us enough to take five thousand pictures.








I love how dirty Abby got by the end of the party!
