L to R: Grace 4, Ryan 4.5, Casey 2, Trevor 8.5, Connor 3.5, Drew 6, Sean 6.5 Miles 1.
Here is something that had not yet occurred: all 8 grandkids in one picture and no one is crying. Usually, we try to do this and at least one of them refuses to cooperate. Obviously, Grace is out numbered. Each of my sisters has 3 boys and we have Miles... and Grace. Although they used to fight a bit more, they have grown to get along quite nicely. There are the occasional melt downs, tantrums, and wrestling. There have also been entire evenings of one girl playing princess, with her magic wand, chasing all of the boys and hoping to catch herself a prince. We learned one thing: don't hold Ryan down and let her kiss on him. He gets awfully upset. They are only 6 months apart and have always been at odds. They play wonderfully for the most part now, but if you mention that you only have princess plates for him to eat off of, that's the end of that!

Great idea to post the names and the ages. I would never have been able to sort them out! I haven't seen them for a while! I can't believe Trevor is 8 years old...and so tall! Great shot!
