Korth Family Photos

Today was a big day, that only happens once every few years...The Big Korth Family Photos...Jon and Donnarae are in town from Notre Dame (Jon's in grad school there) and we decided to get a family photo. Naturally, the only time this could happen was on a Sunday...with almost 40 people, you do what you gotta do...Everyone was there except for Troy's brother Kourtney, and his family...For some reason, they don't enjoy being around us, and it is very rare that we get to see them. We invited them numerous different ways, and our calls and letters (through the mail) weren't returned. We were hoping they showed up, but they did not. We decided to go through with it anyways...
EDIT: Apparently they called and left messages on Sunday afternoon...hopefully we can do a re-take in the summer with baby Phillips as well...

The Set-up...
I posed everyone (well, I tried to) and then set my camera on a tripod and had my dad snap the shutter. A few people were late, and the sun was moving fast, so we had to make a few improvisions...

The Photo...(yes, I say one, because there is ONLY 1...a combination of 5 different photos...thanks to blinking...grabbing boobs...and bunny ears...and no, none of the children did this...only the adults...(thanks for the extra photoshop work...I appreciate it).

Here are a few other photos from the day...









That'll have to do until the next time...

Wow, you got those up quick. Nice work. Thanks for doing this. If Jon and Donnarae come out before they move to NC maybe we could try a summer or spring photo and get Kourtney and family to come. They did leave messages for us sometime on Sunday.

Great pictures! I always love the close up pictures of your kids. Happy new Year!

Have to confess that I laughed out loud over the boob grab comment, especially after the stir I created on my blog from our photo shoot over a similar "issue". Sweet photoshopping skills :).
