Let’s Try this Again!

I know I kept my Aruba post short and sweet last week, but in case you couldn’t tell by the photos, we had a wonderful time! I’ll be the first to admit that I was a little nervous about going on vacation with such a large group. Even though there were certainly moments of chaos, there were also moments of pure bliss… this was not one of them. We attempted another family photo session because  we are suckers for punishment we needed an updated group family photo. I told everyone to be dressed and ready by 4:00PM knowing fully well we would arrive an hour late.  I was wrong…we arrived 2 1/2 hours late! By then, time was definitely not on our side as the sun was setting quickly, but we still managed to get a few shots for the family albums.

Nadette@Eat, Read, Rant! - You are certainly a brave soul for vacationing in such a large group, especially with the little ones, but at least you knew there was going to be chaos. Your family is absolutely gorgeous!
