I was dying. I hadn't thought of that...I really had the fake family there for like 10 months. We set the bar for low class.

I DO have some pictures of the kids in the fron foyer but the are are in black and white in black frames, which to me seems more formal. Same goes for in the office. All black and white. We have a few on the mantel and then a large framed family one on the wall in the living room. Upstairs in landing/hallway is where all the color photographs of the entire family (ours and extended) are. So, I don't know....I love our photos and we did just what worked better with our decor. I didn't think about what looked classy or not.
