And we all end up here...
Seriously, 45+ years and I've never met a single person of German / Irish descent in my life. Until today, I guess...

In regards to people who think that you 'run out of ideas'...well...she just thinks of new places to go. Children's Museum gets a new exhibit about every other month...the Science Museum is about the same...In the summer there are parks, fall there are orchards and pumpkin patches, for winter there's snow and Christmas and about 3/4 of my extended family birthdays...
As for pictures...we just got our second digital camera at Christmastime...we had used the other one for some 4000+ pictures in the 3 years we owned it.
Now, a slight disclaimer to that, when you have a digital camera, you're a little less critical of how many pictures you take...There are many pictures that were taken that were never reproduced on paper (but are of course archived and saved digitally..."Just in case").
So, since Christmas, I think we're up to 500 images on the new camera...and the boy's birthday (3rd) isn't even until the end of the month...
Scrapbooking, as my wife describes it, is like making a photo album, but you don't have to sit next to someone and explain each picture while they read it. You write little boxes and put everything in context. If someone has to ask you a question, then you didn't do the page well enough.
(and she would NEVER cut a picture in any shape except square, oval, or circle...her rule is, "Thou shalt not detract from the subject of the photo by mangling the shape of the photo."...or something along those lines)

Wow. Add me to the pack of Irish/German. Family names are McCoy (yes those McCoys) and Tucker (as in Tucher Brewery). Tucher got switched to Tucher when the g-great grandfather came to the US. My grand father is a spitting image of the founder (big mural of him on the wall in the brewery in Germany. Beer is not bad either (Suppenkueche in SF serves it).

Speaking of not looking like siblings.
How many could pick my brother out of this lineup:
Of course, I'm the one kneeling in the front in the olive drab BDUs - the rest of the guys there are either of German/Bavarian descent or British Isles descent (and two Ukrainians). I'll give you a hint - it's not the guy doing the internship that's in from Japan.

I certainly hope the person standing second to the left isn't. lol. Hey bren, how did Mr. Lofft(standing fourth from the right)get in there?
In all seriousness, your brother appears to be standing far left. The hairline looks familiar.

On second thought 1st guy on the left top row.
