My favorite photo changes constantly, but currently I'm loving the one I took of my boys and my husband in West Yellowstone on his 30th birthday. I love my little family!

My current favorite photo is one of the girls and our new cat, aptly named Meow-Meow! It's our first family pet and they are so excited! I'm excited to have them go through this, as I never had a cat when I was young! Great memories are in the making!

This is really hard, I have so many favourite photos! But the first one that came to mind was one I took of my Mum and brother on holiday in Mallorca,they are silhouetted against a bright summer sky, dipping their hands into the ocean.

I always love ones of my loved ones such as my little niece jumping on the bed in her Sponge Bob pj's when we were stuck in Nebraska for 3 days at my parents. She is laughing but has a look of get me out of here soon.

My current favourite photograph is one my friend captured on a trip into Vancouver with our families. Near the end of the day she snapped a photo of our husbands from behind walking down the street holding hands with our kids. The sweetness of the love those two men have for their kids juxtaposed against the grittiness and dirt of the downtown street is simply beautiful. It's not a perfect shot by any stretch, but it is my current favourite.

My current favorite photo is one that I took of my kids in November. I caught my daughter looking at my son with such adoration in her eyes. She really loves him and looks up to him. (Ages 9 and 7). This picture has been inspiration for a page about how much she loves him and how he needs to take his role responsibly.

My favorite photo is of my 3 grandchildren. Out on a snowy day they are all snuggled together ages 6,7, and 9. Their cheeks are rosy and big smiles.

LOVE a picture of my daughter at the beach, it's from the back, waist up, a huge sun fare in the middle, and she is slightly off center...just perfect in my book. She was one and a half, and i love seeing her sweet baby arms up and the fuzzy view of the beach ahead. (Probably not the best description...:-))

My favorite ... is still an "old" one -- my DS .. the first day of the last year of school -- a simple snap shot of a smiling boy ... echoing the 12 previous years of "first school day" and foreshadowing the future ...

My favorite picture is one of my brother and I. He is actually kind of smiling in it-which is hard to catch in pictures.

My favorite photo is probably usually the one I JUST took! "Oh My goodness look at that!" is what's usually following each click.... I could never narrow it down :) Brianne

My favorite photo is of my dad and my son. No one loved kids more than my dad, being the youngest of 5, I was his favorite for a long time, I was happy to see my kids take my place. 20 years, thousands of photos, one favorite...chokes me up every time.

My fave pic is one of my aunt and I on a Mexican cruise last year. We had so much fun, enjoying her final moments before she passed of breast cancer. We made the best of the sad times, and laughed & laughed. :) Thanks for the smiles, recalling the memories!
