The San Diego Temple

We started by positioning the older kids

We put Chelsea in last but she is of course crying

We gave in and gave her a Binky, then put her on Grandma's lap

At least Chelsea is no longer crying

But we can't seem to get a single child to look at the camera

Or sit up

Or even just smile...

This is probably the best we can get

At least Grandma looks good

It is just fun to be together

Grandma and Grandpa Allen had gotten the kids some adorable matching Christmas outfits, and so we took advantage of the beautiful grounds of the San Diego Temple to try to get a picture of all of the kids together for their Christmas card. Thanks to our stubborn little Chelsea Grandma had to get in the picture, but even then it is a difficult task to get a good picture of 6 wiggly little kids with very short attention spans. We finally gave up and got a picture of the entire family in front of the temple. The whole process was a little exhausting, but comical at the same time.
