Photo shoot- overload of pics for Grandparents

I tried to surprise Scott for his birthday (no you haven't missed it, it's next week so don't forget) with a picture of all five kids.  After weeks of planning, getting new clothes, and an hour of prep before the photo shoot getting kids fed, dressed, hair combed, etc.  it was a complete failure.  I took the kids to the mall by myself and the babies for some reason did not like the place.  They screamed and cried and were acting so scared of everything.  This is the point where I'm thinking that we shouldn't have stayed home so much this winter.  To add to the chaos, Nathan kept running out of the studio to the exit doors or into the department store.  After half an hour of chasing him and trying to calm the babies down long enough to take at least ONE photo, I gave up.  We loaded back up in the van and came home.  So, the next day we had our own photo shoot at home, with Scott's help.  Hyrum and Joseph still weren't very cooperative and neither were some other kids we know, but we were able to snap a few photos with at least some of the kids smiling.  Some pics were taken a week or two ago but most are from last weekend.  So, if any of you want pictures of our children, this is how you will have to enjoy them.

Family Photo

This is our attempt at a family photo, a very rare occasion.  Half of us in Sunday best and the other half in Pj's, great combo for family pictures right?

Halloween and such

This is how amazing Scott is, he can wrestle with three kids at the same time, who are coming from all angles, and let me tell you it is no easy feat.  
 Scott and I attended a murder mystery dinner right before Halloween, I was in charge of the cake..a little gory for me but it fit the theme.
 Our assigned characters were Betty Grable and Sunny Bono. (Scott won best costume award)
 Hyrum (Caveman) and Joseph (dinosaur) didn't really get into Halloween this year.
 Our Queen of Hearts, Anakin Skywalker, and little pirate in front of our new home...
 Not quite ready for the Bumbo

 David is too busy for a close up
 First snowfall, the kids wanted a picture so they'd remember it.
 Home renovations with little helpers (Lydia's actually a good one, the other's might be considered more as supervisors).
