Last weekend my daughter came home from college for the long weekend.  I decided to take advantage of this time, and try to get some pictures of my 3 children together.  With her not being home all the time now, I figured I better try while I can, because I know how these things can go.

Now, you have to understand, that just because I can take beautiful pictures of other people’s children, that doesn’t mean it always works in my family.   Please refer to my November 2007 post of trying to get pictures for Christmas cards to see what I mean.

I set my expectations low, planning on the fact that my son would say he was going to cooperate, then change his mind.

Well, the stars aligned, and God smiled down, and I got my pictures.  Not only one day, but TWO!!

Since it was such a momentous occasion, I just had to share with you all.

But first, as you can see, it still never exactly goes smoothly…
