Anyone up for a couple's pic thread?
It is rare that Mr. and Mrs. Maestro are in the same photo together but here we are from last week. It's a unique time when there is actually another adult around to take a picture of us. Usually I just have my adorable rugrats around. :)







I'm not sure how long it will be until we get another photo together. :)

My wife has never seen an ocean, and my parents offered the tickets back to Alaska for our wedding gift, and we agreed...cause I miss home, and she has never seen the ocean...these pictures were the first time she has ever seen/touched an ocean.

She is from SW Missouri..where we currently live...:)

5. Good Idea for a Photo Thread
Here's the still MrsRetro and I last fall when we were still a couple.


We're not a couple, but we are a couple of DU'ers! miss_american_pie and myself a few weeks ago.


A couple of RetroKids playing on a rock pile by the tracks waiting for a steam locomotive to go by.


A Couple of Iowa Northern Railway locomotives, 3809 and 3810.

15. Another former couple...


That's me (squint much?) with the ex-Mrs. Speedoo, in the middle, with our son and daughter, about ten years ago. This was taken at a wedding in the El Yunque Rainforest in Puerto Rico.... very beautiful place.



A very happy couple, my mom and dad. Taken about five years before my dad passed away.

121. Can't complain about those long full lives.
I lost my grandparents at 93, 96, 87 and early 70s (cancer). Most of mine lived long eventful lives just as your parents.

89. So did you have an American and Japanese
wedding or were those just for the pictures? Great shots BTW.

97. Chinese

We participated an elaborate series of ceremonies and parties in Shenzhen, and then later were married in a civil ceremony in Minnesota.

120. Chinese?
Cool, my niece is Chinese. My brother and sister-in-law flew to China and adopted her. We have some great pictures of that trip. China is a beautiful country. I just hope it can control its booming middle class and the environmental issues that this brings into play.

123. Off-topic, but China has 10 times the population in a similar space

The United States is sparsely populated compared to China. They definitely have their work cut out for them in guiding the development of their economy, especially as against the "developed" world hoarding the gas and oil.

61. Hey! You diadcentric folks are discriminating against us!
Here's a pic of me with my two wives, and Vicki's son Malik. We were at the state fair, which is why we look so addled -- except for Malik of course.

98. This is the "Sands"
I have to giggle--some of the only recent pics I have of us together are either on a picket line or holding beer cups...

Someplace I have a couple of GREAT family photos of ALL of us on an informational picket line. (Material Girl is an EXCELLENT chant leader, BTW.)

Kevsand is in the Red shirt and Cardinals Baseball cap, and I am standing next to him with my JWJ sign. The speakers were talking about the Stagehands' local. They are being denied health care coverage by our local BIg Ten university because they do not have a "regular" work schedule. I was pissed off, if you can't tell by the photo.

Our May Day on the university quad...



Regards!


Laura

I love the background and the rock wall that you are sitting on. I'd crop that picture to focus in more on you two and frame that picture. :hi:

The photo was taken by a nine year old (at the time) who is a cousin of the bride! He did a great job framing us.

We're the same way - we have tons of pics of our cat but very few of us together. Here's one of us at my daughter's wedding last June.
