Family Portrait

On Christmas Eve, we all gathered outside for a big family portrait. Tyler got the camera all set on a tripod, set the timer, and ran and jumped into his spot. As soon as the shutter clicked, it started to rain. Tyler bolted out to the camera and ran back inside along with everyone else. We ONLY got ONE shot, one photo with 9 kids and 7 adults. I just knew that we were going to have to start all over when/if the rain ever stopped. Tyler went and uploaded the one and only photo and it was this one.

I couldn't believe every single person was looking at the camera and most of them smiling. Joshua said "it's a Christmas miracle."

Kudos to you for pulling off this amazing feat... good grief we try to take a picture of just the three of us and it is near impossible. next time we get together (whenever that may be) we need to get a cute family picture... my walls are screaming at me that i need one -- and i'm just not as capable as you at pulling this off...
