All gathered. . . .

    You have quite a collection of groups in photos! Interesting to see the fashion changes in wedding photos!

    A wonderful collection of 'gathering' photographs highlighting all kinds of get-togethers. You didn't explain the very first wedding photo - but I loved all the little girl attendants wearing the Dutch-style flyaway caps. So sweet. :)

      It is my dads brother getting married in London. Don't know about the Dutch style caps.

    It's nice to see gatherings when we're "Alone Together."

    Wow, a veritable family tree of photos. You are so fortunate to have them. I agree with Susan -- it's nice to see this family closeness when we are socially distanced.

    Well-done! The Scout photo makes me wonder why we never took a group photo of our scout troop when I was a kid.

      I think that was when our troop was at its biggest.

    Wonderful pictures! I wish I had as many group shots as you do. I especially like the cousins football team and the scout troupe. Great job.

    Your family may not gather much, but when you do it's certainly with style.
