wow, we survived the photo session!

Here is one of me and our eleven daughters. Abigail 23, Mali 15 holding Camille 2, me, Emily 24, Margaret 12, and Mirielle in the purple in the front right. The front row from the left is Evelyn 10, Suzanne 8, Sonja 7, and Kathryn 11, with Charlotte Claire, 3, in the front. Here is Paul with our five sons....Benjamin 21, Paul holding Jonathan 5, Samuel 14, Joseph 18, and Aaron 17.

Here is one of all of us...Back row of boys: Benjamin, Samuel, Joseph, Aaron

Evelyn, Sonja, Me holding Camille, Jonathan, Paul holding Charlotte Claire, then Suzanne with Kathryn behind her.....

It helps that the photographer was Claire, my niece, and her sister Janet was the helper. (Two of my sister Cheryl's seven girls) We did not get a perfect shot, with so many people. the chances of everyone looking at the camera at the same time gets slim. Add in some teenage boys who have no patience for the whole thing, and a few little kids who look behind them every time someone makes a smart comment, and you get picture after picture that is perfect except for one of them. But the ones we got are fine, I am just glad to finally get a picture done. Thank you Claire and Janet!!
