Anniversary Photos

On August 11, 2008 Mom and Dad were married 

at Swan Falls Dam 

under an old tree.

We intend to return there every year for a family photo.

Second Anniversary.

First Anniversary.

So yesterday, we packed up the coolers 

and loaded up Dustin, the dogs, and the motorcycle. 

We also brought along Grandma Laura and Aunt Nicole and their two dogs.

It was a beautiful day, 

but getting two dogs and a toddler 

to simultaneously hold still and smile for the camera 

was quite difficult.

Here as some of the least unflattering attempts.

Too far away and those are not our dogs!

Even without the dogs we struggled.

Close but still no dogs.

Even better without the dogs and the toddler.

Getting better, but kind of distant.

If only Mom and Dustin would look at the camera.

I just love this shot of Dustin too much.  I had to include it.

Well you get the idea. 

Get the perfect family photo ... we did not do.  

But we did get this!

And we have each other!

And we have fond memories of another anniversary at Swan Falls!

A picnic and motorcycle ride post will follow.
