2018 Family Pictures

I love that we have a tradition of getting family pictures taken every year.
The coordinating of outfits is challenging and outside my comfort zone (and I've noticed that we almost always use navy blue, ha!), but having a yearly record of our changing and growing group is such a blessing.
We love our photographer, Andrea. She manages to keep everyone (mostly) happy and cooperative, and we are always thrilled with her final results.
We live in such a beautiful area, that it's not hard to find a spot to take pictures. This year we drove two miles down the road to our local lake park.
Sibling group shots are always some of my very favorites. 
 
Aubree's grown a ton this past year, so she looks significantly taller than her siblings. She's also wearing boot with heels though, so it's not quite as extreme as it seems.
 
I think this might be the last year I'm taller than Aubree. And once Aubree passes me up, it's just a matter of time before the rest of them follow suit.
Aubree is almost 13 and heading into 8th grade.
Bryce is 10 and heading into 5th grade. 
Thane is 8 and starting 3rd grade.
Graham will be 6 in a week and is technically starting Kindergarten (even though he completed the K curriculum last year).
Graham was a bit of a stinker during the photo shoot. He did not want to cooperate or smile. He wasn't upset about the pictures, I think he thought he was being really funny.
Nellie on the other hand, loved every opportunity to ham it up. She just turned 3 and is cute as can be.
Any suggestions for next year's color scheme?

Love the pictures. You should do Olive, Mauve, and Mustard. Or plum and grey. or dusty pink and grey. or ... I will help! You just have to ask. I can even order online and have all the clothes mailed directly to you. I love getting outfits together.
