O.k. it worked! So some explanation of pictures. Of course my dad in the Uncle Sam hat. Then J. We do a karaoke night on July 3rd. My brother brings his karaoke equipment and we all get down. There's a picture of him and my oldest sister singing "Fire and Rain". That was cool. I got down singing "Love Shack" and "Celebration" The picture of the three beautiful girls lower down on the mosaic are three of my nieces doing an awesome job singing some trucker song I think. We had a flag ceremony and one of my brothers posted the "Support our troops" flag. Mom and dad, of course are in there, amongst the balloons that we let go and watch float into the air. My nephew and great nephew are looking cool with their shades on. Two of my other cutie nieces posed for one of the shots and of course G. is in there being a ham. j is playing a pioneer game with one of her cousins in the shots on the last row. It's a stick game where you have to use a stick to pick up a neckerchief and place it on a bucket. There are two teams and two buckets at either end of the playing field. It pretty darn fun and the kids enjoyed it. M.'s there with her dad watching the flag raising ceremony and taking a break on the grass. And one of my little nieces that were adopted from China showing off her adorable self and the great cookie that she made. In case you can't see what it says on it, it says "I love you".
I love the Fourth of July. I love that my parents have this tradition. It almost didn't happen this year because of some health related problems. But I'm sure glad it did and I hope it continues to happen for years to come.

I LOVE G's expression in the one where he has the flags crossed over his cheat. I always say this, but he is going to be such a knockout. Such a handsome little boy.
And j. and her LONG hair! I guess I haven't seen a photo of her in a long time. It's s pretty. You really do have VERY nice looking children.
What are you frustrated with photo-wise with the blog? I used to be upset that I couldn't post larger pics, but I figured out a way around it. If that's part of the issue let me know and I can tell you what worked for me.
Thanks for the compliments on the kids. G, scares the crud out of me! LOL! I am really not looking forward to his dating years. I'm about ready to whack j's hair though because about three seconds after it's combed through it's snarly again and looks horrid. I try to keep it in braids or pigtails so that doesn't happen.
the deal I have with blogger is this particular lay out. I would love a third column. And as for pictures I like to post some side by side but this middle column is so small. I think this format was made for the smaller monitors though so maybe what I have in mind wouldn't work unless it was a bigger monitor.
I did look at some other layouts with the three columns but I can't figure out how to work them. I'm sure T could help me out but I don't like to bother him with computer stuff when he has to deal with it all day at work yk?
Anyway, long answer to your question. Thanks for the offer of help. Like I said right now I'm just too lazy to figure it out. :)
you are baaack! Love reading everythinga nd seeing the pix
glad you are back ;)
This may be something you already looked at, but down at the bottom it has some sample 3 column templates for blogger:
