At the Botanics

 

Chasing Pigeons
    

Recently my sister requested to have some family photos taken of her family.  She likes the idea of having family portraits taken on a yearly basis.  Sort of like Jon & Kate Plus 8 (when they were together).  They had pictures of them and the children taken every year, which I think is a great as it helps to track how the kids have grown year after year..  And I love the idea of looking at old photos, and seeing how much we have changed (I have to emphasise that I used the word 'changed' not 'aged'!) 

So, off we went to the botanics.  The kids had fun, though I must say that it was tough getting their attention and focus.  I think I probably have to learn a thing or two from the photographer who takes pictures for Jon & Kate. I heard that his assistant hold up hand puppets to get the children's attention! We ended the day with lunch at PS Cafe at Dempsey, a beautiful place with so much natural light flooding in..
