The Sister Kind of Funny
My mom is one of eleven kids, born to a Mennonite farmer in Lancaster County PA.
They recently got together for a reunion and took a group photo.
There are ten living and my Aunt Helen was missing.
They asked if I could photo shop Aunt Helen in if they left room for her
and got a photo of her, I said sure.
So today my mom's sister Aunt Esther and her husband Uncle Jim brought the photos over.
He had emailed low resolution pics to me earlier to play with.
My mom and her sister Esther were watching me work and they got silly.
I love to listen to the sibling dynamics .
They said that the angle of Helen's pic made her look a little broad (oy!!!)
could I make it thinner?
I did and then Esther said "Hey,don't make her thinner than me!"
That started it,they laughed!
Then they started making me add more Helens,
the whole time they were laughing like idiots.
This is Millie and Esther's idea of funny.
You don't know how this just made them laugh,
it was one of those priceless moments.
My mom is still laughing.This is the merged photo...
or this one?

I can imagine that this was a lot of fun for everyone. I'm going to mention it to my in-laws. They'll get a kick out of it.
That is a hoot. lol
You do such a great job with these, Beth! Love the one with 5 Aunt Helens!
LOL!!! Great job
Quintuplets!!! That's the one that should be enlarged and framed! I can just hear your mom laughing over that.
The first finished one with Aunt Helen in the middle looks like she's holding hands with your Mom! I think she 'fits' better in the second one though. I wish I could've heard the sisters laughing - I'm sure it was so much fun. Peace
That was fun! It made me lol!!
The second one with her on the end is a better one... And I can imagine they were really whooping it up! hehe. Don't make her thinner than me! hehehe - yeah, sisters!
Aunt Helen fits in better in the second photo. Great job merging the photos! And I got a kick out of the sister antics.
I'll bet there were lots of "laughter tears" in that room and you were probably grinning the entire time! Great post Beth!
Haha nice. I'm sure I'd be on the floor laughing if it was me.
that's hilarious. the second one looks more "real"
Well...it's got me giggling!
Isn't it wonderful to hear a mom laugh! 
Wow, perfect fun and perfect work. Especially with such a gang who radiate strength and personality.
I can't see Obama in any of them though. Odd, but of course we don't know enough about his real origins.
I did this once, for a girl-friend, caught posing at a wedding with a hated aunt and obviously scowling at her. My improvement had the aunt peering from behind every rock, so to speak. Perhaps that's how the poor girl really felt.
But it your case the goal is family-unification.
Love the last picture! You are good at this it seems.
You're a hoot! How did you do that? I'm techo deficient
Wow you're really good with photoshop!!!! :O! Can you use it to make me look pretty?
So funny!!
Priceless! What a neat syory, I can hear them giggling!
She fits right in in the last one! You would think she was standing right there in person!
This made me smile. I can only imagine the humor they got out of this. Great story.
hahahaha! The thought of them cracking up over this cracks me up!
Great story Beth.

I wish I could make people laugh....
@WildWomanOfTheWest - Oi
@Aloysius_son - How is my portrait coming along?
@seedsower - It sits here 92% complete. It will be ready for when we come to see you in November!
Hilarious! Is Aunt Helen the oldest? She needs a photoshopped crown.
@HeyJulieBaby - I will tell Millie (my mom) that you said that ,she will be elated,she is the oldest (79) and the shortest.
That's just great! Aunt Ester must have been all over the place for a great many years for everyone to laugh the way they did.
I love how a very simple family moment can turn extra special when just one person gets silly . . . then it gets contageous . . . This is great!
how fun is that!!!!! Love it
So funny! If I send you some photos of me, can you make me skinny?
I like the pic with her on the end. It just seems to blend better.
