Those of you who have known us for very long, know about our family portraits. For the rest of you, since spring 1981 we have had a family portrait every year. Most years were thematic, ie: oriental, safari, patriotic etc.. Individually they are fun but all together they are amazing just for the progression and history. We have been very blessed because the kids-in-law have been good sports and gone along with this craziness, and as you might guess, the more children the crazier it gets. For this year's photo, Rod decided we should do tie-dye as the theme. Turns out our camp out was the perfect place to dye our shirts. The mess was much easier to clean up outdoors. It was my first experience doing tie-dye. We had a good time. Here are the results.
Each family designed their own shirts and chose their colors. Rod and I tried to use most of the colors.

I am afraid that we do the crazy version better than the serious.

We sure do enjoy being together!

Not everyone wanted individual family photos. I think Keith was in a hurry to get out of his shirt. The colors for their shirts were chosen by his six year old daughter. :)

If you should decide that you want to see the rest of the photos, come by soon. Things are getting packed.
