Because we had a new member of the family, and I had a great coupon that was expiring, and there are no JCP portrait studios in Amarillo, I decided it would be a good idea to drive to Lubbock one Saturday and get our family pictures taken. I'd say the results were mixed.
From what I can remember, the drive was fairly uneventful and the kids were basically good. This was Saturday, September 12th. We drove straight to the studio and got the pictures taken! Seth was a disaster - running all over the place and refusing to hold still for pictures, but everyone else did great! Overall, we were pleased with how the pictures turned out, except that we only got ONE picture of all six kids and....it wasn't the best. And, I look horrible in all the pictures, but what can you do? At least everyone else looks good! I LOVE how the pictures of each of the kids turned out.
After we finished with pictures, Andrew took the kids to the car because Seth kept running out of the studio and into the store. I wish the studio had some kind of door for corralling children, but it didn't. Eve and I stayed and made the decisions about picture purchases. When we were finally done, we made a quick stop by the temple and our old church building (didn't even get everyone out of the car cause it was getting late). We had wanted to drive by our old house too, but decided it wasn't worth the 30 mins out of our way.
So we just made a stop at McDonalds for the kids and the recently opened Costa Vida (!!!!!) for Andrew and I and headed home!
