A Dozen Cousins

Last night we took all twelve cousins to the ampitheater in A.F. for pictures---the one at grandma's was missing the last two babies. All we wanted was one good picture. We knew it would be impossible to get smiles from everyone simultaneously, so our hope was to get one shot with everyone looking forward and not crying. As you can tell, our expectations were way too high!
This is the very first picture. . . .things seem to be breaking down quickly. . . .
C'mon Morgan. . . . just relax and be natural. . . .pretend there is not a flailing child in your arms!

Brit doing his best to calm his cousin. . . . unfortunately that didn't work either.

The photographer took over 300 pictures---in only 30 minutes---her plan is to photoshop everyone's best face into one picture. I wish her luck!

Oh my gosh, whose screaming little girl is that? I would never let my baby girl be spoiled and act like that!! Ha-ha!!! Definitely all the other kids look so cute, too bad my daughter is causing 100%of all the problems in the pictures. Hopefully one will turn out good!

So cute! Everyone looks adorable...even Lindsey's little girl. Why do the always choose such great times to throw a fit huh? 300 pictures is a lot!

What a fun picture! I bet you were all glad when it was over, I can't wait to see the finished product! Your kids are all growing up so fast and they are so cute!
