Family Pictures 2013

One late July morning, Dale and I skipped work, dressed the girls in their most adorable summer dresses, and took them to the park to play. The photographer we met there took a couple hundred pictures of the girls playing, and they turned out great! The best part was that it didn't feel like a regular (boring) photo shoot -- no posing for pictures, no "say cheese" or "everyone look over here." The photographer just took pictures of the girls while they were playing and having fun. Here are some of my favorite pictures from that photo session.

Sweet Cordelia


This is my absolute favorite picture of all three girls together. Dale is on the other side of the seesaw, and Estella can't take her eyes off her daddy!


Cordelia, Estella, and Adelaida playing "trains" on the slide. They do this on our slide at home all the time too.


Cordelia, Adelaida, and Estella on the bridge.


Loving sisters! Estella and Cordelia love each other so much. I just love to see them hug like this!


There's nothing quite as funny as riding on daddy's shoulders! I'm not sure how Cordelia's dress ended up covering Dale's head, but it is cute!


A lovely picture of Adelaida. She looks so mature in this photo, it is hard to believe she is just four years old!


I think this is my favorite picture of the whole family

Ring around the rosie!

Somehow Dale ended up with Adelaida on his shoulders and Estella holding on to his back for dear life. I think he was having as much fun as the girls were!


My favorite picture of the day: Adelaida smiling and smelling a dandelion!


Estella just can't keep her tongue in her mouth!


Another photo of the whole family. Adelaida, Dale, Estella, me, and Cordelia.


I was so happy with the way the photos turned out. Thank you Kira, for taking great pictures while the girls played and had fun!
