“My parents just got a hot tub and were very excited about it. Therefore, my grandma hired a professional photographer to take a family photo in the hot tub. For some reason they posed with wine and candles even though the children were not old enough to drink… and were caught of guard when people disturbingly asked if they were wearing clothes after they sent it out to 150 plus friends as a Christmas card.”

At my fathers calling hours last year, this gem popped up on the slideshow, providing much needed comic relief to me and my family. I had blocked this out, and for good reason. My step mother reminded me of a spring break trip to visit them in 1996 and her suggesting we take a nice picture. I’m not sure about nice, but we certainly did take a picture.

Lined up youngest to oldest, my siblings and I recreated this old family photo. We still had the same old painting to hang on the wall.
