Default Bi-Monthly Photo Contest "I Am Thankful For ..."

The theme for this contest will be
"I Am Thankful For..."

Capture, in a photo/collage, what you are thankful for.
The age of the photo is not an issue with this contest and editing IS allowed, and very much encouraged, with this contest.
The only real rule is that your Monte MUST be included somewhere in your photo/collage/submission.
So go crazy with your ideas
Ready, Set, GO!!!

Submissions will be accepted through next Saturday, November 26, 2016. This will give everyone a chance to get creative!!

I guess I'll go first. But the Bud Chev is in storage, so I'm going to the archives...

I guess we're going for a Thanksgiving theme here, so am I supposed to photoshop a pic of the car into a giant cornucopia? That's probably a good idea, but I ain't got the skills. So I ain't photoshoppin'.

I got this:



This pic is me and my family taken by myself with a timer & tripod... back in September of '09! I am shamed because my family has grown by one (another daughter), but I am yet to re-take this shot or anything like it. I should because it is probably my favorite pic of myself. My oldest daughter Jerrica, who is less than a year old in the shot, is 8 now. So she's quite a bit different, but I haven't changed much. The car look's pretty much the same too, missing only the signature decals above the doors. I liken the photo to what the movie poster would look like for "National Lampoon's NASCAR Vacation".

More than anything I am thankful for and proud of my family and this was the best timeless shot I could find to represent that.

Who's next?

This is good one for sure Family Pic's say it all. Me I don't have anything with this style of Family photo. So I had to make something up.
