Isn't a picture truly worth a thousand words!! That's probably how many it would take to describe the scene of Sadie's drama! We love Sadie - without her our family would not have any drama and entertainment!! With the Holidays approaching I carefully planned getting everyone ready for church (which by the way was at 9 am) in time for a few minutes to take a quick family picture! After that attempt in the photo - it reminded me why we never have any professional recent family pictures! The kids, especially Sadie, can't seem to handle it!! Something is always wrong! This particular morning I had done Sadie's hair curly - BIG MISTAKE - she was trying to pull it straight as she cried and told me she didn't like it, she doesn't even want to go to church and she wants me to take it out!! At least someone looks good in the picture - Brady!! The other picture is evidence that we DO have good kids - we just have to take their picture when THEY want to, NOT when MOM wants to!!

P.S. If you don't see a family Christmas card this year - now you know why!!

Oh,what a cute picture! I especially love Aiden(uh-oh, I can't remember how to spell his name, isn't that terrible?!) Anyways, his outfit is so adorable! He looks so mature!

Nice try. I am very impressed by your early morning readiness.
That is how our last family picture looks. except in ours both the boys were crying and Jeremy looked like he was less then a second away from blowing up. we may not include a picture in our christmas card either.

I think your family pictures are great! It makes me feel so good to see other families are like ours!

That pic of Sadie having her meltdown is hysterical. It's especially funny because Reagan is looking at her like she's lost her mind. LOLOLOL.

That is a classic picture. You guys are a cute family. Way to go on being ready way before 9! Our church is at 9...it blows!

I feel your pain. There is something about girls and getting their picture taken. It starts so early...everything has to be perfect and it needs to be their idea. (Sounds a little like me, maybe that's where my daughter gets it from). I haven't attempted Christmas pictures yet and I'm not exactly looking forward to it.
