Family Pictures

The Johnson Clan had family pictures around the new house on Christmas Eve. They turned out great!

I love these people so much.

You'll notice that Elliot managed to step on some cactus right before pictures and is doing weird stuff with his foot in most of the pictures. 

Felix earned himself an outfit change after the first picture. 

Staring at Felix per usual

Grandkids shot. Doesn't Mimi's hear look great?

This one is an instant classic. I still can't believe we convinced her to hold the ax "just for one picture mom pleeeeease"

Feeling jazzy

I was not surprised by Elliot's reaction to the "Thumbs up, everyone!" instructions

The goofy ones are my favorite. 

WIDE.

The bros were very willing to climb in the tree, and we had to use all our powers of persuasion to convince the kids that there was not enough room for them to join their uncles

Lil' Zicko is our energetic, mischievous goofball these days. 

Lately he's been pretending to be a wolf. He comes up to me with his hands cupped and says "here's some more moose meat, mama wolf!" then asks me to put a bowl of water on the ground for him to lap up. 

Annie was predictably the most willing participant of family pictures. She's got a big heart and all the enthusiasm. 

Elliot had less enthusiasm for family pictures. 

There may have been some bribes in place to get this smile out of him. I love this kid's sense of humor.

The Oat with his Mimi. He has said on multiple occasions that Mimi and Grumpa living close by is one of the best parts of his life right now. 

Lil' ol' me

How handsome is this guy
