[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't that weird?!

It wasn't quite a bride portrait either.  She was married by the beach, and it was a photo of her looking over at the ocean, totally by herself, not smiling.  Also it was raining because it happened to rain on her wedding day.  And it seems like an incredibly happy marriage so I don't think it was some sort of statement.

And no, I don't send her photos of my kids or myself or anything.  Oh and she sent this photo to her inlaws too, which is even WEIRDER!

Oh and I should mention this was our Christmas present.  HAHAHAHAHAHA![/quote]

How thoughtful of her! But seriously, why are brides NUTS? Or, what is it about being a bride that so brings out the nuttiness?

Re: the first question - my husband and I had a big to-do when we first moved in together, about the place for family pics. His parents' home is filled with those creepy (I think) studio shots of the grandkids, the weddings, that sort of thing. I didn't grow up with that - my parents have a lot of framed photos around, but they're snapshots, and aren't up on the wall. It quickly devolved into the sort of fight that I'd say has been an archetype for a lot of our fights - I get accused of being a snob, I try not to accuse him of having grown up with really bad taste. Anyway, I happen to love his parents, but I still appreciate that some photos are weird.

No good advice, though I do like the idea of putting the photo on your husband's desk. Or maybe you guys can move it around the house as a game. Peeking out from behind the curtains. On the back of the toilet. See if you can feel it staring at you in all sorts of funny locations.[/quote]
