Aside from white shirt issues, the weather was also a problem. Since May in Pocatello is fraught with snow and rain, it was hard to find a sunny day to work for us. We kept pushing picture day off hoping for better weather until we were down to crunch time on Sunday. Unfortunately this was the worst day out of all of them. It was freezing and wouldn't stop raining. When we finally had a break in weather my mom said maybe we should go do it. We were all grumbling then we decided maybe we should wait. And then Jenny started hollering around about how she did a facial mask that morning and so there better be pictures. Since Jenny never hollers (she's learning though) we decided fine. We'd go.
Here are the results:
We started out at Bartz Field until we got rained out. Jenny didn't realize my dad was using her to focus his lenses.
 |
| Puppy was being wrangled and didn't want much to do with me. |
 |
| We were cold. It started raining. Let's be honest. |
 |
| We went back to our house to take pics on our covered deck. Some of us recommended that earlier in the day but some people didn't think that would be a good idea. |
 |
| Dad was wrong-it was the perfect place to take our pictures. And I guess the white did look pretty good. |
 |
| Of course we had to bust out the hat. I tried to tame my hair so I wouldn't look so much like Slash from Guns'N'Roses. Did it work? |
 |
| Dad didn't quite get DJ's vision of his hat picture but you they still turned out good for the young lad |
 |
| Jenny posed like a professional. It's as if she was supposed to be in our family or something.... |
 |
| Jenna is always flawless-it's hard not to hate her. |
 |
| Kody-a man and his step-dog. |
 |
| Sisters! Also you probably haven't been able to tell but it was pouring rain behind our pics. That's all for the Mills Photo Shoot 2011. Apparently we're doing another one at Christmas. We're all supposed to be wearing white shirts and khakis. Seriously? |

Seriously!!! hmmmm...khaki skirts for women sound good....
When Mom suggested white shirts to me I jokingly told her we would all look like angels and then promptly forgot about it. Mom didn't. She was dead serious.
Look, everyone appreciates that you went to Old Navy to pick up shirts, however, the white shirts pictures that were sent to you via blackberry were nothing like the white shirt you chose. Effort still appreciated.
Though the weather was freezing rain, the pictures still turned out well. Roxy is the most photogenic out of the bunch - I think it's the orange fur. And don't hate me! In those hat pictures my ear is all poking out like some kind of elf. Not attractive. Also, my husband's name is Kory and Roxy is his child.
Cannot wait for Christmas pics. Mom says to start looking for a khaki skirt now that will go with your white shirt. I'm wearing scrubs.
I think you should wear bad holiday sweaters at Christmas! You are a beautiful family! No one can "holler" like Chris at a family photo shoot ;)
Love your post, glad you are back to blogging. Love the pictures too.
cute photos. My Dad is a photographer and in some ways I think that makes family photos a worse experience. Everything has to be perfect.
So in your family you have a Jenny, Jen and Jenna. That must get confusing.
I have missed your blogging so much more than I realized. :)
Cute Pictures!
