Picture Tag

This is a fun photo meme that I was tagged for by Sandra at Diary of a SAHM.
Here are the instructions:

* Go to your Sixth Picture Folder then pick your Sixth Picture.

* Pray that you remember the details.

* Tag 5 others.

Here is the picture I found in my 6th folder. I thought this was a great one because I think it represents some of the things that are important to me; family and fun!

This was taken on July 4, 2007 in our back yard. Andy was going to be leaving for boot camp soon and we were trying to get a picture of all of the cousins on my side. You can imagine how hard it was to get them all sitting still, much less smiling. However - you can see who caused the problem in this picture! All the younger kids were behaving, but Aaron decided to be a wise guy!

For those of you who know my sisters or read their blogs I'll tell you whose kids these are:

bottom: Halle, Shaelyn, Arrianna

middle: Heather, Aaron, Laura

top: Nick, Andy, Katelyn, Chelsea

Terri's kids are Katelyn, Chelsea and Shaelyn

Cheri's kids are Nick, Arianna and Halle

I was only supposed to show one picture, but had to show you what happened after all the kids found out that Aaron ruined the shot:

We did have fun, and yes - I did get a good picture after a few attempts.
.
Now I have to pick out 5 of you to do this: (please don't feel obligated!)
Christina from An Unspoken Story
Terri from Terri's Talk
Cheri from Another Day in Paradise
Sarah from Short Stop
Jamie from Rose Cottage
If anyone else is interested in this, please join us!
