At our recent Flinders Family Gathering, my sister Leisa put together these tags for us to wear according to the chronological order we entered the Neil & Joan Flinders Family. For some reason, this was SOO fascinating to me to see where my family fit into the sequence of my parents posterity. With my Dad being number 1, my mother as number 2, and me as number 9, the last of their children, they currently have 57 members total in their family! We actually stood in a big line according to our number at the party...it was so fun to visually see the order everyone entered our family! My parents will celebrate 50 years of marriage this June. Good work Dad & Mom!!

Shelley, that is such a great idea. I imagine that would take some time figuring out Shane's family. My side is pretty easy though. Me being 4, Shane being 8 and my kids are 10, 12, 14 and 15. (We only have 16 total :) That is FUN!!
What a fun idea! I would love to figure this out with the Jacklin's because I always forget what number my kids are. Are you up to a challenge?!
How fun is that! Flinder family fun, aren't ya glad ya come!! (as farley would say) Very exciting about the temple!
