Family Portraits

The other day we received the pictures that we had taken over Christmas.



I forgot some of the details of our scheme we'd cooked up back in late December. But I think it went something like this: Karen, Mom, and I had decided to get a number of the pictures in 5x7, and 5x7's come 2 per sheet. So we were each going to end up with an 'extra', so to speak. Instead of that, we decided to 'short' one of the poses and trade for another's 'spare'.

That is, in the above album, I only have 3 of the 5 (I believe) pictures that I wanted. And the same should be true for both Mom and Karen. So I'm going to trade my second Me-Dad-Mom-Karen for Karen's Mom & Dad.

If I remember correctly, I might also be trading my second Karen-Michael-James to Mom for her spare 5x7 of Everybody. I could be wrong there, though. I hope somebody had this written down.
