need help fixing this picture before ordering enlargement.

I got the only photo that is almost good enough to have it enlarged and framed for Christmas but there's two problems.

My older daughter (in white top) is too close to parents and too far away from her older brother in the pic while everyone else have space around themselves just right. I need to move her further away from her parents to be centered between her bro & parents. The water between her & her brother will have to be cloned and give that space between her & parents and move her over to cover the original water. Not sure if it's possible?

Second problem is a teen boy (in black stripe top, second from right) moved his face that's blurry. I need to either sharpen his face or swap his blurred face with another one from other pic.

Can anyone do this? I have NO experience with this kind of thing nor have the tool or program to learn. Thank you so much!

Just booked to fly!

To Utah next week! To plan the wedding for my sweet girl! The first wedding from this family and generation! I want it to go so well that I can relax and enjoy in October! I am nervous about the planning because it is out of state and I am doing stuff over internet! Really weird to do it not being able to see & do things in real life. So, I'm meeting Lindy who will also be flying to SLC from seattle.

After all the wedding details to be done, she & I will fly home together back to good ole hot desert to go shopping for a wedding dress with her younger sis, Gramma, Ashley (our son's girlfriend) & I. It will be a FUN girly time together!

I can't wait to see her and looking forward to meet Toby's family for the first time.

25 Random facts of me

1. I am the third of four kids and the only girl. The second girl in 3 generations on my father's side.

2. I was an Army Brat. Moved quite a lot while growing up. When Dad retired, we moved to Tucson when I was 14. After 3 yrs, I was wondering why we aren't moving again & told dad that it was time to go. He said no because he was retired and we were to stay here! "Huh? You mean here forever?"

3. I couldn't stand the idea of staying here that I was thrilled to meet a boy from California that I later married. Aha! We'll live in California! No, he chosen to stay HERE! I have been here THIRTY-ONE YEARS!!!!

4. Met this boy at a valentine party that neither of us wanted to go but fate brought us together. :) I was 19 and he was 20.

5. I feel so blessed to have 5 great kids. I love them very much and always tell them that every one of them are so worth it. I can't really remember my life before them or much less a mom of one back then. They were always here somehow my whole life. I just gave them a physical body to see them. :)

6. We have been together 24 yrs.

7. I'm passionate about languages because I love to travel and want to be able to do this. English aside, I'm fluent in American Sign Language and am currently teaching myself how to read & write Italian. I also am learning Italian Sign Language and British Sign Language. I plan to do French & Spanish next.

8. I got a cochlear implant 3 years ago and it changed my life. I now can hear so much. I am speaking much clearer and understand people much better. Now kids can't get away with anything in the next room or even in the yard while i am inside...Gotcha!!! (Poor Ethan...he'll never know the life of getting away with things with a deaf mommy like his older siblings did growing up).

9. Noticeable scars on my body include one from my emergency appendectomy 5 days before Christmas '99 and one on left side of my head from my cochlear implant surgery (3 days after Christmas '04). I hope I'll never need a surgery around Christmas time.

10. My passport says I’ve been to Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, Ireland, Scotland, England, Netherlands, Greece, Turkey & Croatia. My list is far from complete. I want to travel the world!

11. Next will be Asia & South America. Or wherever I can find a cheap ticket anywhere, I'll go with my hubby. He is the BEST traveling companion.

12. My family travel to San Diego for the beach every summer.

13. Cruising is one of my favorite ways to travel, it is the best way to sample all the places in a short time. If I like a place, return back for a land trip to explore further.

14. But I HATE to fly! I get really nervous but I keep on thinking: I have to be there, it's important. Then I just stuck it up and go.

15. I am much more of a night owl than a morning person. I usually go to bed around midnight but I still get up every morning at 7 am with no problem. Well, I had to drive them to school! I don't have time to take a nap ever!

16. I was born profoundly deaf due to german measles while my mom was pregnant with me. It all started with nameless brother that brought it home from school. I have two older brothers and my mom refused to reveal which. One was the most kindest brother and I adored him and the other used to be ahem...a troublemaker, a meanie to me. I sometime wonder which one, but that's not important. :)

17. I graduated from high school in 3 years as a junior. :)

18. I am a queen of flat tires. Though, I never been in a car accident, I always manage to get a flat tire on a regular basis (abt 3x a year). It is a curse!!!

19. Fresh berries and fresh flowers. These are two luxuries I would have every day, if I could.

20. I LOVE a clean house. So much so, I sometime forget to have real fun.

21. I am forgetful, painfully forgetf...wait, what was i writing?

22.That's why I MUST scrapbook! Gonna SAVE my memories!

23. One of my favorite places to be is my backyard. Any time of year also, since we're in Tucson. gardening, grilling, hanging with my family, picnic on the grass with the kids, catching the lizards, yard games & sleeping in the treehouse - twinkle lights on the roof, speakers on from the window, cool evening breeze, hound dogs running - it's so lovely!

24. I L O V E to read.

25. I really want a laser eye surgery but I don’t know if I could ever go through with it. Being deaf and blind would be a complete nightmare!!

BIG NEWS!

Our daughter Lindy has been engaged to a boy named Toby from Seattle, Washington since this spring. They are so cute together! Really like this charming boy! As of last night, the kids finally decided on a fall wedding...yep, two months away! A lot of things to do in a oh so short amount of time! Thank God for Toby's family, they are going to help us pull together a last minute wedding real quick! We are going to do it in the boy's hometown of SLC and I'm excited about getting another chance to see the beautiful Temple Square and having my DH & kids seeing it for the first time since they have never been to Utah before except for that time we brought Christian to BYU in Provo for college 4 years ago. It's going to be beautiful autumn!

i'm working on a new travel blog!

I know, I know...I need to start being active with this blog, not starting a new one. This current blog will be just family news, everyday stuff & pics. etc. This travel blog is exactly what it is going to be; all about our travel & photos. I may even start a 3rd blog just for my scrapbooking. (gasp!) The real reason is that I have so many photos and Blogger wont let me set up more space for these photos, so each blog would be better, I hope! This will be a big test to see how I'll be doing. lol (((hugs))) to you all!

Here is our Christmas Eve photos...
