On the Spectrum #90: Family Geography

(click to enlarge)

Just in case it's unclear... No, we're not related to Barack Obama. :) Oh, and my apologies to anyone who doesn't think what I drew looks much like them.  This is harder than it looks. LOL.  ;)

Needless to say, we end up doing a LOT of traveling on the holidays.  Luckily the kids are really good in the car and on the plane.  Getting through security... not so much, but they are really good considering how far we go.  (We live in Michigan, and this doesn't even mention anyone up in Massachusetts!)

First apperance of Nana, Grandad, Uncle Mike, Aunt Lorie, Baby Cousin Paige, Auntie Lauren and Uncle Dave.  (And Barack Obama.)

Ask a silly question...

I was sitting accross the table from him. I think I almost spit my coffee out. He writes it folks, I just draw it! I could never make this stuff up!

Happy Birthday, Mom!

This is Grandma's first appearance. It's also the first (only?) time I've managed to work as many as SIX recurring charecters into one strip!

Again, I'll never understand how kids who line things up perfectly, just for fun, can have such messy rooms! The two of them have earned the nicknames, "Captain Chaos" and "General Disarray." (Yeah, we're South Park fans, too.)

This is "Grandpa's" first appearance.
