Summer Holidays, Day 14/50

Day 14  Happy 9th Wedding Anniversary to my wonderful husband!  Yes, it's our wedding anniversary today; 9 years of marriage and 2 children later!  Today, my one request for our anniversary was a family photo.  Every year I try and get at least one family photo (ie snap!) of us as usually it's me behind the camera.  But of course, that's never as easy as it sounds with two energetic boys! 

We were heading out to Cromwell this morning for lunch out and a game of mini-golf, so my original idea was to take a photo before we headed out.  But then Hayden stood on a bee and got his first bee sting, which ended in yelling and tears.  And then it started to pour down, so that was the end of that!  So we decided to try when we got home later this afternoon, which of course was always going to be pushing it a little with tired kids!  I handed Dad my camera and literally told him to point and shoot.  In the very short space of time we had before the boys completely lost it and it started to rain again, we definitely had more out-takes than anything, but in the end, I guess we got a reasonable shot all things considered!
