So it’s December 21, and my parents have finally come to visit me in North Carolina after almost a year. Mom says: “wouldn’t it be nice to take a family picture so I can send out a holiday card?” Yes mom, it would be nice… and better late than never! So we pulled out the stairs-on-wheels, and took a few overhead shots, hoping to produce something kitchy enough to make momma happy… (oh yea, and in time for the holiday).
