Mother's Day 2012 Part 1

My mom had made her kids and grandkids all pjs for Christmas. She had hoped that we could take a family portrait but the kids were wild and the lighting wasn't great. So the photo op never happened. My mom's birthday was the day before mother's day and we thought it would be a fun gift to arrange a photoshoot with all the kids and grandkids and surprise her with this.

So with everyone healthy and happy, we were able to find a weekend where we could all get together and snaps some pics. Wrangling 7 adults and 9 kids is a feat unto itself! Thank you self-timer!

Here are some of my favourite shots...



And here's mom's reaction... (those would be happy tears)



Happy Mother's Day to all the women who have children, care for children, have raised or continue to raise children, and the women who support other women as they raise and care for children. We all rock!
