Family Pictures
May 2013

We had an old friend, Stephanie, take some family pictures for us.  We knew each other growing up, and reconnected in Utah.  She has a photography business, Flash Jorgensen, and she takes amazing pictures, and my kids love her.  We had it planned for awhile, so we could get Lucas's 6 month pictures, and some family pictures with our new family of five.  We went to Murray Park.  It was not good timing.  Matt's Dad had passed away the week before, and Emilyn had been sick.  We just decided it was now or never, and went anyway.  We had already pushed it back a couple of times.  Lucas is almost 7 months in these.  Emilyn had just turned 4, and Matisyn had just turned 7.  Emilyn was definitely not herself, but we were able to get some beautiful pictures, and I'm happy we have them. Even though we took them earlier in the year, I used a few for our Christmas cards, so I waited to post them!  It was hard to choose, so there are a billion!

 Matisyn playing peek a boo with brother.  He is the big focus in the family for sure right now!

 Matisyn took her own camera and wanted to take pictures like Stephanie.

Sisters exploring together!

 I love this picture with the girls and their Daddy!

 At the very end, all three had had it with pictures, but I wanted at least one with them all together.  I was able to get this one!

This was my favorite in the moment picture.  I love our little family!
