Family Pictures At Newport Beach

For Christmas, my brothers and I gave our Mom a photography sitting with the entire family at the location of her choice.  My daughter's friend Anna Little is a photographer, and has done many photos for their family, and then our kids gave us a sitting at the beach for our 30th anniversary this past summer, and so who better to use than our favorite photographer....AnnaLittlePhotography.  We met in the late afternoon on a picture perfect spring day.  It was a lot of fun. 
These were taken into the setting sun, so we are all a bit squinty.  Is that a word?  I love the pop of color on Gennifer and Jake's girls...Hannah and Claire.
There are 5 generations of women in our family.  My Grandmother (Nana) is 96 years young.  Then my Mom...also young....then me...yep, you get the picture...young...and my daughters Gennifer and Erika, and Gennifer's daughters..Hannah and Claire, making 5 generations.  Isn't that exciting!!!
I love this photo of our hands....
My grandson Noah is tugging on my leg to go to Target.  I told him I would get him a new car if he went potty on the big boy toilet.  I will post more when I get home.
