So this week, Kiki and Owen were in town visiting for a day and we decided to take the kids to the Pumpkin Patch at MDUMC for some Grandkid pics.
If you think this sounds like a great idea, well so did we. The execution was not as easy or successful. We had 4 adults with 4 cameras taking pictures as quickly as was humanly possible and this was the best we could do! Of course, in our defense, getting a 9 year old, a 6 year old, a 4 year old, a 2 year old and an infant to look in the same direction and smile at the same time is pretty much impossible. We are ready to declare it a proven scientific fact. And any discussion on the matter is closed.
The best pic. At least they all looked pleasant!
This was how we started out. I like that they are all looking and facing different directions.
My kids. Jill was having a "I refuse to look at the camera and smile day" that day.
Almost...
I give up. They are all smiling, though.
Jill.
Josh.
Jake.
Mom and kids. Notice Jill had hijacked the camera at this point.
And a look back at last year. I forgot how nice it is to have dry ground and not rotten pumpkins to take pictures with!
