Family

When everyone came out for Christmas we got these pictures taken. My sister has a friend that's a photographer and she was so kind to get up early the day after Christmas and take these pictures. Dana had to work that day so we were there at 8 am! And it was FREEZING! None of the nice temps. we've had lately. We really got so many fun ones. I love this one of all the kids.
My AWESOME family

Our little family
I love this one. I really have the world's greatest mom :) She is also an equally wonderful grandma.
This one of all the girls is so cute even though Sadie is crying. In her defense it was at the end and she was shivering. She was all bundled in a furry blanket in grandma's arms between pictures. We couldn't quite get her to see the importance of the shot- and she definetly didn't like being taken out of that blanket.
The only 2 boys so far. Good thing they have each other.
All of us siblings. They are all such wonderful people and I learn from each of them constantly.
Only one guy missing. I can't help but think a lot about my dad whenever we take pictures. I know everyone else feels it too.(Me and my dad at high school graduation)
I miss you so much dad!!!

Oh my goodness, Kate. I'm crying right now, tears coming down and my heart hurts. I was loving all those pictures. Everyone looks great and the kids are so darling. Then as I scrolled and I read "only one guy was missing", that did it. Instant tears. Your family is amazing, that's all I can say.

You have a beautiful family, and I'm sure your dad would be (is!) so proud of all of you. What a nice picture to have of you and your dad!

Love that! True that is EXACTLY what we all feel everytime we do pictures. Although no one really says it, I think it will always seem wrong. It is a great pic of you and Dad.
