A rare event occurred July 4th, 2012.
A family picture containing 2 adults and 5 children was snapped and everyone was looking at the camera.
This happens maybe once a year for us.
I cherish every family photo we have, as I’m sure you do as well. Families are constantly changing and photos are a great way to look back and remember.
This July 4th, was spent with friends that are very special to us. We sat in their front yard and had a perfect view of the most amazing fireworks show I’ve been blessed to attend. Add to that a wonderful breeze and I was practically tearing up from how perfect it all felt.
But, then I’m pregnant and I tear up at pretty much everything these days…and gag at everything. Ah, pregnancy.
I would be honored if you would share your family photo with us. It doesn’t have to be from the 4th of July, just a photo capturing a moment in your family’s history.
I love seeing your faces! I’ll leave the linky open through the month of July.
In our family photo you can see that Camden is wearing just a cloth diaper. He covered his clothes in the massive amounts of food he shoveled in. Of course, I’m not complaining that his hero Ragababe got full exposure!
One way to tell you’ve really grown as a mom is to look at a picture and not care one bit how you look. I look terrible yet all my kids are adorable so who cares right?!

My little one was sporting the exact same cloth diaper on the 4th! Love me Ragababes! Glad you had a happy holiday!

You shine through your beautiful kids, Autumn! Is there a way to post a picture without a link?

If the photo is uploaded somewhere and you have a URL for it maybe try that.

p.s.
you’ve had five kids… and you STILL look great! you should give yourself more credit. i happen to think it’s a nice photo of you. but i know what you mean. it took me a year after having our only child before i really started to care about that again… and even now, it’s not like it used to be. but i think it’s sort of freeing in a way.

What a great picture! It is very hard to get a picture with everyone looking at the camera! Your oldest daughter looks just like you!
