In The Middle Of Nowhere

Last Sunday we headed out into the middle of nowhere for a good ole family reunion. We had one last stop before we headed on this last road into nowhere and just to give you a picture of this gas station in your mind, the restroom had a paper on the back of the door that said it hadn't been cleaned since May 2008. Here we are with some of the fam, minus a few who couldn't be there. This was with my papa's side of the family so each of the brothers and sisters had to get in front of this " backdrop" (if that's what you want to call it) and take a family photo. Now if you want to get one of these backdrops at your house here is what you do... take the plastic tablecloth off the table and tape it to the wall. And make sure it's crooked too, makes for a great shot.

The parentals...aren't they presh??


Here are the girls with mema. This was in the "community center." At least it had air condition.


Here is sister and me with Papa. We can't get him to smile often, so this is a framer.


Matt and Steven are such good husbands and husbands-to-be and they came along for some good ole family fun. Nothing like telling old war stories and having to stop and turn your hearing aid up half way through. Gotta love the fam!

You know what I love the best. The picture of your presh parents with the back drop in the background. Love it! And I must try this new table cloth background. They may be on to something!

Can't believe we actually got a picture of papa smiling!! Yep, the backdrop does look pretty bad! You'll have to be in charge of the backdrop next year!
