Pollock Family Pictures

For Grandma Sharon's birthday I decided to organize a BIG family picture. We had wind, cold weather, poor light, and seven kids under the age of three. Considering all of that (and the fact that I was the photographer AND in the picture) I think we did okay!

Pollock Family Easter Picnic








The annual Pollock Family picnic and Easter egg hunt. We go out to the middle of nowhere, Tropic area, and let the kids run around crazy for the afternoon. They all played in, wore, and ingested so much dirt we were seeing it for days afterward.

The Easter egg hunt was fun, too. It was Abby's first *REAL* hunt so she didn't want to put the candy in the basket but she fared quite well. I guess she was unwilling to let Lenny help her carry her basket so she hauled it around even though it kept getting heavier and heavier.

Leah is a pro at the egg hunt thing. She collected a whole bunch of candy and was really good at spotting it, too. She didn't want to accept the possibility that maybe the candy was all gone so she was one of the last kids out hunting. The only difficulty she had was keeping her candy in her basket. She'd lean over to pick up another piece and dump out half of the basket in the process.

Once again, it was a wonderful Easter!
