Christmas in California: Family Pictures

Q:  How do you get 8 kids under 8 to look at the camera and smile without being silly?



A: Ummm... you don't.




Especially with 5 different cameras going at the same time.  Originally we thought that with so may people taking pictures we were bound to have 1 good one... Not so much.



This is when Charles instructed them all to pick their nose.


And this is when he told them all to eat it.


Bradley needed no such instruction, nor an invitation for such behavior.



Fun Fact:  
Top 2 kids are 4 months apart
Next 2 kids are 2.5 months apart
Next 2 kids are 1 week apart
Bottom 2 kids were born on the same day, just hours apart.
They just kept getting closer and closer...
(we should have switched Jaden and Forrest so they were in order by age)
      


 I guess it's even too hard for adults to know which camera to look at.


Pathetic...


So close...


Perfect. :)


Sherrie and her 8...


Originally we wanted a huge complete family picture, but with Chuck being away, it couldn't quite happen.  Maybe next time...

  1. I can almost hear Curtis gagging at the "eat your booger" pictures! We have pictures like that and there are only 4 in our family. Funny though, the last time we tried it was Brent's dad that was never looking at the camera!
