Freshmen House members were up bright and early Friday morning for a time-honored tradition that nearly didn't happen this year: The class photo. 

Postponed repeatedly due to bad weather, leadership elections, and a lack of afternoon light on the South side of the Capitol, the photo finally came together at 8 a.m. on Friday morning.
