FAMILY has company

One of my Christmas gifts was a print of our family picture.  Well it wasn't really a gift but it came the day before Christmas so I feel like it was a present from ME.  I ordered our family pic in a humongo size for the dining room wall.  The FAMILY decal has been there with nothing under it for over a year.  One thing we should all do is have prints made when we get our photos taken.  I don't care if you don't like your hair or you weigh an extra 20lbs more than you want to, Maxwell is sleeping, Garrett isn't smiling, or Mallory isn't looking directly at the camera......  All those things are real and our family is real.  This is who we are there is no fluff put into them, no photoshopping to make me look plastic, no swapping heads with one that Garrett was smiling, this is keeping it real, this is us.  Get your family picture printed in a humongo size and hang it up.  I love it and look at it everyday when I walk in the door.  I put it in this old beat up frame for now but I'm not sure it's going to stay in that one or if the frame will stay that color but right now it gets it up on the wall for me to enjoy everyday.
