A Day For Cousins

These four are the lights in my in-laws eyes.  They spend much of their time loving, teaching, giving, caring, sharing, investing, and mentoring in the four beautiful faces you see below.  Michelle and I made the attempt to photograph them as a gift to my father-in-law for Father's Day.  As you know it is not easy to get four kids sitting, looking, and interested in a photo at the same time especially when you have limited time.  However, that is the great thing about grandparents.........IT DOESN'T MATTER!  They will love it just because it contains their "lights."



If you knew these two you would know why this photo is soooooooooo perfect!!

    These are all beautiful! I think my favorite is the one with the four of them walking - I especially love Bennett's face in this one.
