We were offered a chance to get some family portraits done for free by a local photographer.  How could we say no?  I think our family photos at the beach turned out better, on the whole, but there are some cute pics here, too.  It was like herding cats while we were in the studio but all in all they got it done.I think part of my issue with the pics is the orange background, I am just not an orange kind of gal!
