I wanted to take some pictures of the kids. December is so busy for Steve (end-of-year deadlines at work and tithing settlement at church), and I knew I couldn't do it alone and needed a reinforcement. So, I asked one of our cute young women from church to help me out. Wendy was awesome ( I should have gotten a picture with her in it!) and did a great job wrangling and making the kids smile. I just wanted some nice photos of the kids all together, and we ended up with some precious captured moments of our babies.
(I got a little happy with the Merry Christmas sign, but I couldn't help it.)
We cherish these photos. I love that I took them, as simple as they are. And I will always remember that everyone was happy and cooperative. We had beautiful lighting and weather and had fun as I praised my children and told them how beautiful and handsome they were as I snapped away. I wasn't pulling teeth, and only had to offer a few Jelly Bellys to get smiles near the end :) It was a lovely evening.

{And, just for fun, I wanted to show this before and after using good ol' Photoshop. It is suuuper rough, but pretty good, I think.}
