Mi Familia - My Family - Picture Day!!!

Well it's been a while since I posted anything. I was trying to figure out what to blog about. So I decided I would write about my family and the day we spent taking our family "portrait", which consisted of my dining room and my camera on a tripod. I was so excited because I didn't use the flash nor any additional lighting other than sunlight and light in the dining room.

My family is small, but, OH! how I treasure them.

We had so much fun that day. We laughed and giggled the whole way through. My family always finds a reason to laugh at the silliest things. Here's a couple of my favorite pics...

It was kinda hard getting them to cooperate. "Work with me people, work with me!"

Eventually I got them to settle down. And these were great pictures. We never had a group picture of "All" of us together at one time. It was great. I am so happy we took these.

It was extremely special. My grandmother is now 80 years old and I wanted some pictures of us together. She's a special lady. I love her very much. We've grown so much closer recently than we have ever been and I love it. I am so glad to have her in my life.

I took these pictures and put them, along with all of the pictures she owns (I scanned them all), on a DVD slide show with music for mother's day. The video was 45 minutes long. I ended the DVD with these pictures along with a recording of my mother singing "You light up my life" accompanied by my grandmother playing the piano. It was recorded back in 1980. You should have seen the look on my grandmother and mothers face. It was priceless......

I love you grandma!!!
