gloria & i did a family photo exchange....our solution to heather not coming to quincy. and i think it worked out really well (hopefully goria thinks so too).
i took these in quincy last saturday, edited two different ways by heather:
and gloria took these for us yesterday at the john taylor home, edited by me:
it was bitter cold, with a freezing wind blowing. hopefully that doesn't come through in the photos.
such a blessing to have talented friends. but gloria is a blessing even without her talents, as all good friends are.
our christmas card is posted here, merry christmas.
What cute pictures! You have a beautiful Family Julie

The pictures look really great -- you really can't tell how cold I know that it is. Well, Lexi looks like she's holding herself in tightly, but in a cute way! How do you edit your photos? We have the funniest ones that I have tried to take myself -- ha, ha, nothing like funny family pictures!

Lexi has the least cold tolerance....no fat to insulate her :)
I use iphoto, on the mac to edit.
speaking of fun family photos, have you seen landon in some of the photos i took posted on gloria's blog? i was laughing so hard, i could hardly take the pictures. and mike was yelling at me, take the picture, hurry, just take it!
