There are church photos:
And there are church photos:
I like them both.
Here’s a shot outside the church:
It’s one of approximately 302 that I took.
(I have a ten-year-old son, you see.)
(You understand.)
I also have a 12-year-old son.
I like to embarrass him in public and plan to keep it up until he’s 21 or so.
At which time I figure he’ll pay me back.
Now I’d like to tell you about our Easter miracle. You may not believe in miracles, but you will when I am finished. Are you ready? Here we go.
Not only did we get our children to the church by 8:15 so that they could sing in the choir, we also made sure that they were dressed!
And that, my friend, is our Easter miracle.
You may pause to get a tissue.
As I was saying…
When it comes to Easter, I like to take photos. I take them both in the church and outside of it…
…because there is so much cuteness I can hardly stand it.
See what I mean? Too. Much. Cuteness.
(If you don’t mind me saying so.)
(Hey, I didn’t make that outfit! Old Navy did.)
More cuteness.
Even more cuteness.
And okay, a wee bit more.
Should I bring this post to a much-needed close now? I apologize that it’s so long. It’s just that when it comes to Easter, I can’t help but take a ton of photos…
and I know—I just know—that I’m not alone in this.
Our joy, you see, has been made complete.
Happy Easter Monday!

Beautiful photos! AS for your son waiting until he is 21 to start embarassing you back… oh, no. It starts much earlier than that 🙂
Happy Easter!

Great photos! I have the same issue with my almost 10 year old and pictures!
Michelle says
My girls had the same Easter dresses — with white sweaters! And they weren't too cold this year in MN!
Happy Easter!
Colleen says
Love the cuteness!! You guys are such a great looking family, both inside and out. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Joan says
I love the cuteness!! And that WAS an Easter miracle! Getting 6 children out and dressed by 8;15 Easter morning is an outstanding, gargantuan type miracle!! : )
Sara says
I'm so impressed with the beautifully dressed children, especially the matching dresses! And lots of photos! I didn't take a Single. One. 🙁
Sarah says
Of course we love the photos!! We've gotta get our dose of that Easter cuteness!! Keep 'em coming!
Looks like a most beautiful Easter!

My fav. photo…the one in front of the church with middle daughter putting her little foot back. I love those little details.
Wonderful PICS!
Emily says
Yeah, they are sort of the epitome of cuteness. Love the hats, love the baby, love everything.

Margaret is also responsible for taking pictures of MY family after Mass, for which my in-laws are thankful. 🙂
christine says
happy easter! lovely lovely photo's. i'm very impressed that you managed to get everyone smiling in at least one of your pictures. even 1 out of 302 are tremendous odds, i think.
KC says
Happy Easter, dear Margaret.
Diane says
I LOVE all the beautiful pics, Mags, and the creative commentary too. I'm warning you though…if I ever make it back up to MN, I may accidentally pack Little Prince Charming into my suitcase. Adorable.
Easter Blessings to your beautiful family!
Michelle says
One day, little girls will no longer want to wear matching dresses. So happy to see you milking the cuteness factor for as long as possible.
And that baby…no, not safe to turn your back if I'm around. I'd take him home in a heartbeat.
