It's funny, but we see Jade's family and Brian's family (who all live in Utah) more than we see the family members who live less than an hour away from us here. But I am glad that we do see these long-distance family members so often. It really gives our kids a chance to get to know their cousins and build those special relationships with them. I remember how much fun I had with my cousins (most of them lived in Vancouver/Victoria or Kingston, Ontario) when we would get together over the summers and I hope that our kids are building the some kinds of memories with their cousins.
After our week with Goodmans in Utah, they spent a week home in Lethbridge. We thought it would be fun to do a little cousins photo shoot. It wasn't easy trying to get 7 kids to all participate willingly and happily. I really admire those "real" photographers who work with kids doing "real" photo shoots! We did our best to click off some pics of the kids together. Ideally, I would've liked to have gotten a picture of all of the boy cousins together, but they faded long before that happened.
Here are some of the shots we did get...enjoy!
The Burton kids and Goodman kids. That is almost all of the Chan cousins (missing Aubrey and Addy who live in Arizona).
Rhett is a pretty happy little guy! (OK, not so "little"!)
Rhome is a real busy-body...always on the move!
I missed getting a decent picture of Cardiff by himself (he was probably off throwing a rock at something), so he doesn't have a "solo" pictures. Maybe we'll have to try again this fall, but here are some of our kids.
Pictures of Azia and Sawyer (whose nickname is Soya Bean).
My Beautiful Girls are growing up!
Parker is all too happy to strike a pose.
Emmy has grown up way too quickly!
The Burton Bunch!! (Emmy, Azia, Parker, Cardiff and Sawyer)
