Family Pictures

December 21, 2023

We survived family pictures.  Barely.  

It's tricky getting everyone in the same state at the same time.  It's complicated working around work and school schedules.  Don't even get me started on trying to coordinate outfits.  The females in the family were onboard.  The males gritted their teeth and grumbled-mostly quietly.  It could have been worse.  I could tell they were making an effort to comply.

We had these scheduled in August a few days before the wedding.  Luckily, I listened to my inner implode warning and postponed them to December when Park and Brinley would be back in Odessa.  They turned out pretty great, and I'm really glad we had them taken.

Starting off with this one because it shows exactly who is the star of our family: Kaide Tanner Gwilliam  He is loved and adored by us all.

Ooh la la.  I told Aubrey this was her Miss America shot.

Kaide with his momma, Erin  They have the big Disney eyes.  (Maybe they will help balance out our squinty eyed gene pool!  Ha)

Erin (19 in a few days), Tanner (19), Brinley (23), Brian (55), Me (50) w/ Kaide (17 months), Aubrey (17 in a few weeks) and Parker (21)

This little guy brings us so much joy!

Aubrey

My beautiful girls.

Parker Bryce

The Gwilliam girls and the Gwilliam boys

I love this shot and the one below.

He did NOT want to hold hands with his daddy while he walked down the path, but he did enjoy the shoulder ride.

My handsome guy.

I really love this one, but Tanner's eyes are closed.  I might ask my dad to work his magic.  (switch Tanner's head with another shot.)

Boys will be boys.  Parker above and a throwback of Tanner from family pictures probably 5 years ago.

Candids the kids took--I kind of love these.

Until next time...
