Family photos with Nan and Papa!

Last weekend we made the trek to Iowa to visit the fam for Halloween weekend. We had a great time - we always enjoy time that we can spend with our wonderful family! We scheduled an appointment for my mom and dad to have photos taken with all 6 of the grandkids for Christmas cards. At the same time, Aaron had his 18 month photos done (since he will be 18 months tomorrow) and the Tottens kids and Thompson kids had their photos done too.

Aaron has been almost impossible to snap a photo of for the past couple of months, so I knew that getting good pictures would not be easy this time. He's always been so easy to get pictures of, but this time was definitely different! Thankfully, we took the large group shots first, because Aaron did pretty well in most of those. It's always hard to get a good shot of everyone, but most of them turned out pretty well! Aaron's solo shots were another story. Thankfully, Tim realized that maybe he would sit down if he had a cell phone to play with, so that was the only way that we got any shots! Mind you, Aaron now has a cell phone in every single one of his 18 month photos, but at least he's not on my lap or crying! We were laughing because some day we'll look back on these photos and laugh about how 'old' the cell phone looks! Remember those 'bag' phones that we had in the car for emergencies when we were younger? Hilarious!

Hopefully I will get the photos uploaded to my computer soon of Halloween and then I will share those as well!

Cute pictures! I also really like Aaron's sweater. I picked up the same one for both Ryan and Dylan the other day for when we do our pictures and then saw your pictures that night. Now I just have to find something for Kaylee. Hope ours turn out as well as these did!
