More Family Fun

On Saturday my brother-in-law's parents hosted a "Welcome Home" open house for Brice, who recently came home from Iraq with the Air Force. They have a cabin outside Tillamook, so we all spent a fun day along the river; mostly eating and talking.

My mom and Brice's mom decided this would be a great opportunity for family pictures. After his family did their round, it was our turn. The first one was everybody - mom and dad, Jackie and Brice, Rene, Bryan and 3 kids and me. Then mom wanted all individual families. Plus one of just the grandkids.

Sebastien (4), Olivia (2) and Sean (1) were arranged standing/sitting on a rock. Olivia had no facial expression. Rene said it was because a lot of new people were around and she often will become emotionless when overwhelmed with so many strangers. I'm sure having about 10 adults standing behind the camera telling her to smile didn't help.

Then Rene, in a somewhat embarrassed tone, said she always smiles at farting noises.

So the 10 adults standing behind the camera started making farting noises.

Olivia smiled.
