Matching Dresses for the Sisters-In-Law Gap
I kid you not. I think it was on the sale table somewhere. It was funny cause Laura and the girls played it and then wanted to recreate some of the photos they’d seen on the photo cards included in the game. There were challenges to respond to – “explain how you came to have this photo in your wallet.” Do people have photos in wallets anymore or just in phones? Remember when showing grandchildren pictures meant you had a vinyl accordion filled with 2×3 school size pics?
Here is attempt one, slightly desaturated to give the illusion of a time past
Inspired by Awkward Family Photos®
We all know that taking family photos can be stressful and not everyone’s idea of a good time.
And it is an interruption.
A demand.
Someone else’s idea.
Cooperation and light-heartedness are essential for success. Trying to not feel annoyed cause no one is in the mood.
and I wanted a photo of everyone but it wasn’t working out but Matthew is in from Croatia and Zagreb is far away and the opportunity to get the three siblings plus two in-laws is rare
Laura and James on the way home with Matthew (in his new knitted hat) and Mark and Erika, the hosts on the left
Matthew’s friends in Croatia have been looking for him on the blog and here is the elusive subject!
I’ve come across the awkward family photos on Facebook, and every now and then there is a hum-dinger! A game sounds like a lot of fun. Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year Ruth
The pictures look adorable as do the kids and grandkids.
I love these family photos! Merry Christmas! XXOO
You’ve a beautiful family, Ruth, and you’re at your best when they’re your subjects. 🙂
Xxooxx
Great photos! Looks like you had a great Christmas!
Some of those photos are more than a little awkward. I haven’t heard of the game, though – I can only imagine what playing it is like.
So many blessings
you’ve introduced documents of happiness!

My husband really enjoys looking at the “Awkward” site. He also enjoys Cake Wrecks. Fact: A good friend of my college roommate (senior year) is the person who began the Cake Wrecks site!
