Your Photos: The People of SW Florida March 2008

See larger Abby & Joshua Vyn, four and two year old grandchildren of Tom and Lynda Murtha of Toronto, and Bonita Bay, Bonita Springs. The pictures were taken in late November. The children were dressed in red as their parents attempted to take pictures for their Christmas cards. In the end, the pictures were lovely, but for awhile there, we weren't sure if Joshua was trying to strangle his sister.
