The Schafer-Boehme-Soranno Clan



I thought you might like to see the happy gang that spent the holidays together at the Boehme Hoehme this year. Call me insane, but I wanted to grab the opportunity to get all six grandchildren together for a photo shoot. My parents are front and center; that's my mom holding The Most Perfect Baby (my sweet nephew) in her lap. And see the clones on the right? Ida looks so much like my sister when she was wee, it's almost frightening.

Despite the fairly decent composition of the photograph, the truth remains that something is missing. Can you spot it? Leave your guesses in the comment box over the weekend, and we'll see if anyone discovers it. (And you don't have to be a photography guru to get it right!)

Have a joy-filled weekend, everyone!

Spencer should have a blue shirt on? That's the only thing I noticed before I read your entry and after....

I LOVE this picture! I was so impressed by the way you all color coordinated - it looks amazing! I *really* loved your parents expressions, they are just radiating patriarchal/matriarchal pride, it is so sweet!
As for what's missing, hmmm(oooh, it's so tempting to tease Uncle Tom about his hairline here but my hubbie is in the same boat - LOL!) did one of your girls have braces? I know I've seen Maggie in glasses but I don't know if she wears them all the time :-)

I do this all the time when I'm in a photo,so I noticed it. Rachel's missing a hand!
Nice photo though!

What a beautiful picture!

I couldn't figure it out, I just had to take a peak and see if someone else got it.

Looks like pretty soon Jonathan will be looking down on you Jill!!! Is Maggie there yet?

My guess was Jonathan's smile or Rachel's left hand.

Wonderful portrait. I love the blue and yellow together.
