I don't think we have any family pics on the fridge. Wait, I'll go look.
Woops, I'm wrong. One pic of adorable eldest daughter in preschool, whose name rhymes with scrabble.
Also a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon.
I guess the other kids were hurt the whole time they were home, but too polite to mention it.
my parents-in-law have lots of pictures on their fridge-- it's where they keep track of all the family. There is at least one picture of every aunt, uncle, and cousin, and of course pictures of their immediate family. What I found funny, when I visited over Christmas, though, was that the "person" with the most pictures up on the fridge (nobody had more than 3 appearances, counting both group and individual photos) was their "grandpuppy"-- my brother-in-law's dog. I teased them mercilessly about it while I was visiting, to the extent that by the time I left they'd put up a photo of one of our cats, the "grandkitten" :P

Stamie! It's been so long since I've heard from you! (Not to mention Allen, that elusive scamp!)
