Rowe Grandkid Photo Shoot

So for some reason, we keep trying to get pictures of all of Cory's mom's grandkids all together.  I guess we just don't realize what an impossible task that really is with 9 kids 8 years old and younger.  However, we felt compelled once again to give it a go, since it was the last time that all the cousins would be together for a potentially long time!  Oh dear, I just might cry right now!  It is becoming more real to me as the day approaches closer that we are really leaving all of our wonderful family!  We are going to miss all of them so much! 

Ah!  Enough of that (for now) on to the pictures of all of these very darling kiddos!  They really are all such cute kids, even if you can't see it in these photos!  Some are more photogenic than others!  Haha! 

I just snapped this one of my three and it is probably the best one of the three of them!  I kept trying to get a good one of all three and it was really not working!  I really love Lawson and Wyatt running in the background!

Here are all of the Rowe grandkids, Lawson, the oldest is holding Sawyer the youngest, then Lily, Wyatt, Auri, Ava, Will, McKinley and Izzy.  Love Will's tongue in this one!  

Do you see what I'm talking about though?  Why in the world would we even think we would be successful at capturing this many kids in a decent looking photo??  

Lily, Wyatt and Auri are my favorites in this one!!  They look precious!  

Some cute sister pics.

Attempting to get all three, and failing every time! 

 There, they are finally all looking and, of course, Will is crying by this point!

My sister-in-law, Shannon's cute kids.  Izzy, Wyatt, Lawson and Auri.  Don't you just love that fence they're standing in front of???

Another attempt at all three, would have been good except for the shadows!!  No wonder people don't do photos at this time of day!! 

 All the big kids in a tree!  I love this one, and I love these boys!!  Such handsome little guys!! 

 My last attempt!  Will kept sitting somewhere and playing happily with leaves and so I would try to get the girls to run over and just sit by him quick, but by the time that happened he would already be crying! 

 We tried to get some more of all the grandkids, but the kids were all pretty done by this point, we are missing a few in this photo!

 I decided to jump in one, even though I hadn't done my hair or anything!  There, there is a good one of all three! See, maybe we learned our lessons that you can't get a good picture of just kids, you have to have an adult in it!
