September 25 family portrait

On Monday we headed to an old favorite park of ours, Baird Park. Years ago we used this location a lot but haven't done anything in the past couple years. Now I remember why we liked it so much! We had to enter into the park from a different direction because of construction and we are so glad we did because we stumbled upon these great looking barn doors which were perfect and we didn't even know they were there. I think the pictures we took there are some of my favorite from the session. This session was a gift from the two daughters for their mom. We are friends with Sandy and George from church and Lori went to the same college as Lynn and Chris although different years. We had a blast. What great kids these families have! They were willing and enthusiastic with the whole session which made it so enjoyable for us. We did have to break out the monkey dance once to try and crack a smile with the littlest one, but I think I laughed more watching the adults do the dance! Thanks gang for a fun afternoon. Oh, and our 5 year old daughter tagged along with us, and did a great job assisting mommy and daddy!
