Fixed your link,,, I learned something.

Good, you got it, great looking family, lots of em too! I forget how big our family is till I count how many mouths to feed at Christmas dinner, :lol:

Now, my question is how do you mount it on the wall, velcro?

Awesome, Love the idea. I'm thinking I could do something like this, laminate it and put it on the back of the bedroom door and when it's closed, everyone will see it at the end of the hall. Like it, Carol. Thanks for the idea.

Well and for some of us we would need to add the family pets now waiting at the rainbow bridge....... Their pictures really bring back family memories too......

I think like Tina, just the other day I was thinking of making a collage with all
my past doggies and other pets (horses) I've always like the idea of collages.
You have a big family!

YES, YES----my family collage would definitely have all my 4-footers as well as all my 2-footers. I will have to put this project aside for the long, cold, dark winter nights to come!

Carol, I love it!!!

BTW, I wasn't able to stop by on the way back to Oklahoma from Ohio last week as I had a Dr. appointment Tuesday morning and needed to get back in time for that. Good thing, too because we're working different days at Amazon this time, not the schedule I'd asked for, but it's what they needed. So, I drove the 720 miles back from Cincinnati in two days. Another time, perhaps. I'd still like to meet you and see your place.
