Hello! And welcome to the March 10 FAMILY x 12 Blog Hop. We are a group of bloggers who are committed to taking one photo a month of our families. For accountability & inspiration, we share them during our monthly blog hop. This project was originally inspired by Tara Whitney. If you'd like to join us, please send me an email (link on my blog sidebar).
Today we are celebrating the SECOND ANNIVERSARY of our beloved blog hop!
In honor of this special occasion, I thought I would take a little walk down memory lane. This is our latest family photo taken last month in Northern California on a family hike at Tomales Point.
Notice how tall all three boys have become! Especially, our oldest, Reece who is the tallest person in our family! The kids are literally growing right up around us.
Now rewind almost two years to February 2011 and look how small the boys were back then! Paul and I still tower above all three.
Just. two. short. years.
Or maybe I should say two. TALL. years. Ha!
I would like to thank the lovely ladies who play along with me each month. It is because of them that I stay on task and accountable and I remember to take these photos EVERY month of my entire family. Without their consistency & support, I know I would forget and I wouldn't have these priceless photographs.
I used the mosaic maker at Big Huge Labs to put together a quick grid of our family photos from the past TWO YEARS. (Please excuse the poor cropping of some of the photos.)
To see all the photos (without poor cropping) in one place, go to my Flickr Photo Set, FAMILY x 12 Photo Collection.
Isn't it amazing to see them all together in one place? I love it. Don't you want to have the same collection of photos in two years? Think about joining us next month - send me an email and join us!
Now on to the rest of the participants:
Next is Patricia.

It is so fantastic to see all your photographs together Margie. Wow have those boys grown, you really can see the difference so clearly what a great record of the changes, I think I might have to try and do the same thing! Looking forward to celebrating the next anniversary, congrats on 2 years and thanks again for organising this xxx
