Pictures in a Packet

My in-laws have been doing some cleaning out and organizing and gave us some of their extra photos we've sent them over the years.

It got me thinking about how many more pictures I should be taking and how much more journal writing I should be doing because time is slipping by increasingly fast.

It seems like yesterday we were at Sunset Beach, North Carolina

enjoying my favorite family beach ever!

This Christmas photo was obviously snapped quickly.

This one makes me laugh because it looks like Hannah (on the right) is about to cry and I wonder if it has anything to do with how Emily is gripping her little hand....hmmm. Or maybe it's a guilty look Hannah has because she has pulled of her shoe again.

We have a lot of pictures like that when the twins were babies--

almost all of them taken in our Murrieta, California home.

And we all laughed so hard when we pulled out these two photos from the packet...

I wonder who she looks like :)

And then we found a family picture we took spontaneously with our "Atlanta Braves" hats and visors. I remember Dan set the timer on the camera and we all grouped together on the deck outside our house in Georgia. No one "matched" or had even combed their hair, but we ended up using this on one of our Christmas cards.

I love walking down memory lane...
