The Nut House Family Portrait

And by family portrait, I mean all of the kids, I spend my time behind the camera. I took several hundred photos of the kids just before Christmas. Most of them were very much our family in their true form, odd faces, children running all over the place, crying, laughing, spinning, jumping, playing, forgetting they were even supposed to be looking at the camera. We tried several rooms and even outside. For the most part we had fun, but there were a few meltdowns involved and we ended up taking several breaks. I am not sure what happened to their shoes and socks, I don’t remember them walking around like that. The fact that everything else happened to fall together for this photo makes up for the bare feet.

This very well could be the only photo where all 5 kids are actually looking at me, smiling, not moving and everyone is in focus.
