There they all are again
The Craig's are great for full family pictures
There are two others I like, one from the late 60's and another from the 80's or 90's.
Unfortunately I couldn't get them out of the albums without damaging the pictures
If anyone has either, I would love a copy
Here they are again in the '80s or '90s, now I just need the one from the '60s Back row: Doug, Marilyn, Jimmy, Donna, Leo, Janice, Roy, Debbie and Eric

This picture of Jamie, Adam and Kelly was too cute to pass up.
As was this one of Mindy, Jason, Jenny and Chrystal
Now for the great grandchildren, and there are a bunch, twenty one with three more on the way.
I don't have pictures for all of them and in a couple of cases I don't know their names either so help me out here and fill in the missing pieces.
In my defense, there are so many of us and I don't live in the area so.....there are a few I have never met, and a bunch I have only seen as babies.
I apologize in advance for any spelling mistakes on the names or mis-identified children

This picture makes me laugh, Adam looks like he's wondering
"What have I done?" LOL
