We needed a new family picture for a birthday present for my mother-in-law. At a recent birthday party for my nephew Ben, we were able to get all the children and grandchildren together for a picture. That is a total of 14! Yes we managed to get 8 kids still enough to snap the picture.
This gave me a great idea for my mother-in-law's birthday. I bought a frame that had spaces for five pictures. The middle one slightly larger was for the the photo of the 14 of us. Then in the 4 smaller ones I placed a picture of my in-laws, Carmi's sister and family, Carmi's brother and family and finally us.
I really loved the results and I think she did too. Here's a picture of my new favourite picture of us and the one of all of us.
Have a happy Sunday!

my sister and i took photos of us and our offspring a couple of years ago and framed it for our mums 50th birthday. she still cries when she looks at it. i assume thats a good thing!

i read carmi and am soooo happy to finally read you!

It is always great to have the whole family in one photo isn't it?
Count your blessings!
Michele sent me.
Gorgous photo! Thanks for stopping by my blog via Michelle! :)
Great photos and I am sure your mother in law will be thrilled with your frame idea.
My daughter being 15 now usually does one of 2 things with her friends...haul up in her bedroom playing video games/computer stuff OR she and her friends actually like to hang out with me and Chris..either watching movies with us or just being goofy...I hope that never stops.
It's a wonderful gift. We did somthing similar for our grandparents 50th anniversary. The entire family ( it's not that big) got together without them knowing, took a bunch of photos... then later at a party with them, took a few of them... Put them all together, and placed them in a lovely box/album for them. Oh the tears!!!
Happy Birthday to your Mother In Law!
