Maybe you guessed from my gabbiness yesterday or my lack of gab today, but the Vision Forum staff photo shoot was moved from Tuesday to Wednesday.
I usually don’t post a lot of photos at once, but I can’t resist tonight. We came home with too many good pictures to keep them to ourselves!
The 10 of us were out the door and on the road by 6:45 AM:

We reached the Alamo with 3 extra outfits and – can you believe it?! – no puke.
The photo shoot of the entire staff and families in front of the Alamo went off without a hitch. Look for all of us in the newest Vision Forum catalog, which they are feverishly working on even as I type.
Afterward, we all mingled as each family was in turn treated to a photo session of their own. Here’s a celebrity shot: Peter Bradrick on one camera, Doug Philips on another, and Yours Truly in the background. Where? Right there – that’s me in the khaki and white, right next to 13 other people in khaki and white. See?
The new double stroller (courtesy of Grandma and Grandpa C.) came in very handy, and Rachael felt like a little queen being pushed about.

We all posed in front of the Alamo for a rare family photo:

and one of the girls took an even more rare photo of just Hubby and me:
As we left, Hubby snapped this one. It makes me think of the book, “Madeline.”
In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines
Lived 12 little girls, in two straight lines…
I’m off to bed now. Just wanted to let y’all know what we’ve been up to today since I usually post a couple of times each day. To borrow a phrase, we’ve been bloggin’ out loud.

Oh, the pictures are wonderful! I think you should have both the family portrait and the one of you and your husband blow up to hang on the wall in your living room! You all look so sweet.

Thanks for the pictures! I missed seeing you all at the photo shoot, but the pictures helped me feel as if I were there.

Kim – praise the Lord for the answer to prayer regarding the photo day!
I didn’t even know which one was you in the family pic – you look so young (that’s what everyone told my mom all the time too “you don’t look old enough to have all that many kids!”). Seriously – it took me a good 50 seconds to figure it out! Beautiful pics tho!! And your kids are gorgeous! I love the picture that you have at the top of your blog – that’s like a postcard pic!
Love, absolutely LOVED the photos! I don’t think I understand what the whole “vision” thing is though….let me know…you can email me if you wish.
