ANYWAY…. As you probably figured out, we went to Mexico just after Christmas for a week. My mom is ALWAYS wanting a family photo– and there is just nobody ever around to use my fancy camera and take one of all eight of us. I told her I’d figure it out on vacation… so we got all dressed up for New Year’s Eve– went to the beach, got all set up… I took some shots to make sure all the settings were correct– and then we found some innocent beach-walker to try to take the same shot I was taking (but with me in it). The look on his face when I handed him my monster camera was pretty funny. Anyway… out of the 10-15 he took, we got one we were pretty happy with! My dad (who is an awesome photographer himself) took the family shot of myself, husband and kids… and I took the rest. 
We LOVE how it turned out (it’s even better in person!) ENJOY and Happy 2010!!:
