Foote Family Pictures

Yes...this never happens with my family.  But I feel like we are getting better...I think I'm forcing them to get better.  I think the Howards are rubbing off on me with doing things annually (it's a wonderful trait to have!)  So yes, I forced my family to take a picture since all of us got together in Oregon for Thanksgiving.  And I arranged outfits, and no I didn't follow it because I got too busy and couldn't find anything maroon.  Basically I failed, but I did organize my family which is hard to do.  Here are the results of the pictures.  We just used a timer on our camera, and a tripod.  Nothing fancy...but hey they turned out great I think!

The full family picture, with my grandparents (on my Mom's side)

What happens when we are testing the timer on the camera and Evan gets involved.

 

 It only took about 10 different shots, and we got in some "good light" according to Courtney.  If you can't tell she got a bit snap happy on the pictures.  And kept rearranging us, and clearly not telling us that she was taking pictures at the same time.  Gotta love sisters!  I'm glad she took all of these, because you can totally tell we are trying to arrange ourselves, and it's not going well.  And my Mom left us to our own devices on how we wanted the pictures done, so I was left at the mercy of my sister.  Which sometimes is not a good thing.

I love this picture of the two of them

We did pictures with siblings/spouses too.  We try to keep on this because I know we will love these pictures once we all have kids and what not.  I feel bad for Evan marrying someone with a sister so close in age, we get super weird together.

And here are my cute parents who made the whole weekend possible.  It was a great weekend with the family and seeing my Grandad for one final time.  He is the sweetest, nicest man and I will always remember how wonderful he was.
