what a difference a year makes

we had a wonderful 4th of july weekend visiting my parents and enjoying my hometown's annual festival.  i brought out my camera to take a picture when we got up there, only to discover that my battery was dead.  and i didn't bring my charger.  grrr!  so i'm hoping that my sister will graciously share the pictures that she took over the weekend (please kim???).  until then, here is a fun photo comparison.  last year we began taking an annual cousin picture with the kids lined up in age order (yes, william is the one keeled over in a temper tantrum because i set him down). 

we've discovered that it is tough to get eight kids to stand still for a picture!

That's a great concept for a pic. Very nice!
