    I am usually the one taking the pics so there are very few of me. My dad has taken some but I always stick out my tongue at him so they are funny. :lol: :lol: :lol:

    I have never been "photogenic". We just had a family picture taken & have decided that my DD is the only one who naturally takes good pictures. I also don't like the fact that I am 50 pounds heavier than when I got married. But I will show you a picture of us anyway. It's not too bad!

    A good looking family, to be sure!

    You must have been a twig when you got married! Nice picture of all of you.

    I had to get passport photos taken recently and they're frighteningly horrible. I should at least have worn makeup, but I didn't think I looked that bad in the mirror at home! In the end I decided to use the awful ones (since it's still taking five weeks to get a passport back and I travel a fair bit), but at least they won't look quite as bad in black & white. As much as I hate to admit it that is probably what I really look like! Too bad a little Photoshopping isn't allowed.

    Outside of necessities like that, I try to always be the one behind the camera. I like my old photos, when I was younger and thinner and looked much better!

    Well...from looking at the avatar pictures and the embedded pics, I think you are all BEAUTIFUL women!

    Let's stand up and be proud of who we are and what we look like! God doesn't make mistakes!

    *getting off my soapbox now!*

    I have to admit, I was only 100 pounds then (26 years ago). And I don't want to be that thin again. Just a bit thinner!!! But I have always felt like I'm not that bad to look at- not drop dead gorgeous - but I never had trouble getting dates when I was single. I just very seldom take a good picture! And I agree, I am who I am and if someone doesn't like it - tough!!! I have learned that the hard way over the years and figure if someone doesn't want to spend time with me, we are probably both better off! OK, I'll get off MY soap box now. LOL
