This is the annual "Christmas picture" of our kids from back in 1991, when we lived in RI. It was taken at Beavertail State Park. At that time, they were these ages:MJ--2 years
DC--12 years
BJ--6 years
AE--9 years
This was our "Christmas Picture" for sending out that Christmas 1991. We used to regularly send friends and relatives a family picture with our holiday cards, but have had difficulties getting all our children together for one picture in more recent years. Last year we had a picture of us all taken with the bride and groom at DC and AA's wedding.
Now it is 16 years later. In the past 16 years, we've moved to NJ and back to TX. Both my parents died. DC, AE, and BJ graduated from college. DC married and bought a home with his wife AA (Happy Anniversary, D and A!). AE lived three years in Korea teaching English, where she met her partner KA, and they now live together in Seattle where AE is going to grad school. BJ got a new puppy and a new job (Grandpuppy Troy). MJ is a senior in high school.

i think you should send that 1991 picture for this christmas.
Was 1991 really 16 years ago?! Wow. As they say, time flies. BJ is about my daughter's age.
A lot has happened in your life since that photo was taken. All your kids are grown up!
I am with Infinity Squared and you should send that picture/card out again this year.
That is so beautiful!
And yes- time to redo the 1991 one as the others say!
Thank you Jan.
That's a great picture, love the kids and the setting!
Life is indeed amazing with all its twists and turns. Great photo.
Glad you liked the picture. We're not sure what we'll do about a picture for the 2007 holiday picture, because we all won't get together before then. Maybe a collage.
i'm serious about using the '91 picture this year.
That is a beautiful picture. Mine are 6 and 3 now, and 1991 doesn't feel like all that long ago to me...good reminder to me of how quickly their childhoods will pass for me.
Thanks for that picture, Jan. Kids grow up SO FAST! Only Son is the same age as your oldest.
It'd be fun to pose your children in the same way as in that photo and compare the two photos. But if your family is anything like mine, you don't ever get all together at the same time.
