Siesta Key 2011: Family Photo

We convinced (and by convinced I mean we announced, with no other options given) Pok to go with us to the beach one afternoon so we could get some family shots.  I couldn’t be any happier with how they turned out.

The first step was to figure out how to work the remote control.

Testing, testing…

Still working…

What you don’t see in each of the shots above is that Matt was desperately trying to catch himself in midair using the remote.  In each of the above attempts the remote fired at the wrong time.  If you know Matt you know that there was no way he was giving up that easily…

After we got that out of the way we had to get situated…

But when we finally got to this point, the results were well worth it!

Then we broke it down into a smaller group.  I LOVE this shot!

Thankfully Paige was having a blast with Mo and Pok and I got the chance to take some pictures:

Liam had a major case of the wiggleworms so he and Matt decided to go for a short run to shake some of it off…

This is where Paige discovered that sunglasses also make great teethers…

Paige also had a case of the wiggleworms so Gran took her on a little walk:
