When I was in Colorado last summer visitng my mother, I swiped a picture she had on display in her living room. It was taken about eight years ago at my brother's wedding on a horribly hot day in September. My currently 15 yr old son had no idea who that fat woman in the picture was! We scanned it into the computer when I got home. I got cleaned up and took a new pic of myself, and with the wonders of Photoshop...voila!
