The Saga of "The Family Picture"


Everyone, or almost everyone, at sometime in her/his life will have the privilege of participating in some sort of family picture. When a far-flung family gets together for a too-rare visit, it often coincides with "The Family Picture." It seems that we all want to capture a particular time in our family's life when new people are added either by marriage or birth. So, one part of a family gathering is "The Picture." Today we shopped for THE perfect shirt that is in keeping with the agreed-upon coordinated clothing. Grandpa Butch's shirt was ixnayed, so he'll be getting a new one. Grandma RoRo's pants don't past muster either, so she's in shopping mode. Is it worth it? You betcha! We'll capture one moment in time with grandparents, parents, children, siblings, cousins, and a whole lot of love. You can't beat that and we'll have the picture to remind us all each time we look at it.
