ReplyDeleteSuper pic! I think its definetly a halo!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo! Look at those smiles. LOL at hubby for not attending church- how does he get away with that?? It's a shame that he's missing though, you'll have to have a whole-family shot done at the local photographer.
ReplyDeleteGood pic! I like the hair!

Your photo turned out great!
