Oh, how we love photoshop!

For my inlaws for christmas, my sister-n-law had the idea to get all the grandchildren together for a picture to give to grandma & grandpa. That's 13 grandkids, and most of them are under 5.

So you can imagine that I didn't get any pictures that turned out perfectly with that many kids. Someone was always looking away, or making a funny face.

Here is the photos I chose to start with. Two of the boys, Blake and McKay, were actually kinda smiling, which they weren't doing in any of the other photographs. Unfortunately, Halli's hand is in her face, Lexie has her thumb in her mouth, Jaden has his shirt in front of his face, Katelyn is almost blinking, and Olivia is sticking her tongue out. That's alot of people to fix.


 But I really liked this photo of Halli. My pretty, pretty princess!:)


I loved Lexie's smile in this one, and Jaden wasn't too bad either. At least you could see his face.:) 


In this one, I really liked Katelyn, (the girl in front holding her baby sister), and Olivia, ( in the pink in back). So I used those photos.


After lots of cutting and pasting in photoshop, here was the final result.


13 Happy kids, smiling at the camera. well, at least none of them are crying, right? I really don't know what I would do without photoshop some days.

I can't even imagine being at that photo shoot. I am amazed that you got that many pictures of them and they didn't just run away. Every year we take picture for my mom of her 9 grandchildren with much older kids and a bigger age range and we rarely have success, so I am super impressed. And amazing photoshop skills - good job.

P.S. I loved holding Jaden yesterday - he is a sweety. I know you have plenty of people willing to babysit up there, but if you ever need anyone else, I would be happy to get my baby fix!
