I had this really great idea in my mind about a great post where I go through all my photos and find that once a year trip to Bridal Veil falls where I have the same photo taken of me and my kids in the same pose in the water. Then I could post them all up in order and it would be so cute to see how the kids have grown over the years.
The problem with this idea, as I quickly found, was not so much that I couldn't find the photos I took in my semi-archived files and files of digital photos, but that I didn't actually TAKE those yearly, same pose photos I remembered so well in my mind. Anyway, here is what I do have, and it's still kind of cute. (PS Charlotte, I'm still planning on trekking up there with you in September, I hope you're still planning on it too!)
2008 - Joshua and Mama, pregnant with Abigail.
2009 - Missing.
2010 - Joshua, Abigail, Michelle (a visitor from Germany) and Mama pregnant with Lukas went up but unfortunately this is the ONLY photo I have of that experience. That is Joshua in the blue shirt.
2011 - Joshua, Abigail, Lukas and Mama - NOT PREGNANT!! We went with Charlotte and boys, not pictured.
2012 - Joshua, Abigail, Lukas and Mama pregnant with Caleb (yes, we've already changed his name once. You should probably count on this happening again before he actually arrives.) This time we went up with Grandma Paula.
Anyway, I really like going to Bridal Veil Falls, and although through my photos I realized I sometimes do go up more than once a year (well, like it happened twice one year) I think I should probably go up more often.
