So how long does it take to put a picture in a frame anyway?

Let me take you back about 11 or so months to November 2002. One day while I was at work, our Payroll Specialist Debbie asked me why I didn't have pictures of my kids on my desk. I explained to her that since my desk space was limited (I didn't have a hutch like she had) that I only had room for one frame. I knew which frame I wanted and where to buy it. Later in November we went to the Museum of Science and Industry and I bought the frame. Here's a pic...

There's a larger version available here

Anyway... now that I had the frame, I wanted a very specific picture in it. I wanted a picture of the kids right in front of that same museum. Kinda geeky yes, but hey, we're museum members so tough shit lol

We visited that museum a handful of times but I couldn't take the pic I wanted. Snow, rain, only one kid with me at the time, all were a factor. I FINALLY got the pic I wanted when we went there on Nicholas's 6th birthday. I of course don't own any film cameras so I had it printed by Club Photo and waited till it came in the mail. Well it arrived by mail yesterday! So the question... How long does it take to put a picture in a frame anyway? The answer is 10 months!

Here's the picture I used...
