The Truth of It

Yes, for as well-pressed and equally positive in mood and disposition as we all appear in the professional portraits, the truth of our family expressed in these photos.

I don't think I've ever really experienced "tripping over eachother" until the last reunion with 26 people staying in the same house.

Cooing and being silly for the babies.

The Mixup

I recently cut bangs, with quite a reaction from my family--they thought I was Melody. I guessed that I could understand that, since we both have bangs now.... That "guessing" was until Melody visited last weekend. We took one look at eachother and both remarked that we felt like we were looking at ourselves. It was a weird feeling.

Kerchers and Co.

The first Kercher family reunion in about 2 1/2 years took place a few weekends ago. Mandi, Phil and their kids made the 23 hour drive over from Minot, ND for a 3 week visit and Melody, Mollie, Matt and their families drove over from Bend for a weekend filled with noise, playing children, catching up, photo shooting, and being Kerchers.

A good looking bunch, if I do say so myself.

The sisters. I can't believe we're all the same height and shoe size now....! What happened to all the Kercher babies?!
