Family Pictures

I've been wanting to do family pictures ever since Ivan was born, but we just never got around to it. Then I saw the family pics of Aaron's sister Sydni, that Aaron's brother Kelly took for them while he was up visiting in Washington. They looked fantastic. So we decided to have Kelly do ours too. :)
On Saturday we went up to Bridal Veil Falls. There are lots of great spots up there for taking pictures. And the weather cooperated very nicely. It was over cast which is great for pictures, and it only rained a tiny bit right at the beginning. The kids did pretty well. Lincoln had some trouble holding still, but we copied Sydni's idea and bribed him with M&Ms, which helped.

Kelly did an exceptional job, and he was very patient while we tried to get Linc to smile and hold still. He took over 600 shots. It was hard to narrow it down.

I love this one of Lincoln sticking his tongue out. It fits his personality so well.

This is towards the end. Linc got bored while we were doing some shots of Ivan and rested his head on the fence rails.

Ivan grinning for the camera. He's getting to be such a cute baby.

I thought Ivan would hate to be propped up again the tree, but he did so good.

I love this shot!

On the way back to the van Ivan was hungry and tried eating my face. Haha.
