And then there was seven

1 kid

Count em' - SEVEN kids. Do you know what it's like to go places with friends when between the two of you, you have 7 kids?  Suddenly restaurants have to push tables together, or get their party room ready.  You have to take 2 vans to go anywhere, and like this week, rent 2 cabins, not one, like the old days.  We met the Hergenraders at a rv resort near Lake Travis and stuffed 4 adults, 7 kids and 1 dog into two little cottages and let the kids run wild, well as wild as we could without them getting hit by golf carts driven by gray-haired, full-timers on their way to the course. 
5 kids 
6 kids
      Do you know how hard it is to get 7 kids to look at a camera, let alone stand still, long enough for a picture?  I tried.  That's why I'm showcasing my work as each kid entered the viewfinder one-by-one, totally unplanned.  Unfortunately, kid 7 didn't get the message about the run through.  So, before we left, I coerced: "sit still, just one more time, just ONE more picture." Done. And spring break 2012 is in the books.

& that makes 7 - Elisabeth, Lanie, Sam, Elijah, Catie, Nate & Lydia
