It can be seen as prideful but I think it is also tradition in some families. We had a few pictures together but never the huge hanging framed photo above the fireplace. I always thought that was weird to look at yourself all the time!

I love my family and friends dearly and am proud of them. I display their pictures proudly for all to see. Every picture has a story and a memory.

Life goes by so fast that every now and then we need to stop and smell the roses. The pictures of the past give us fond memories of times before. I have photos of my boys in my home when they were younger, and I pause from time to time to reflect with a smile.
It’s also a great conversation piece when company comes over.

I think it is just some people’s preference. I don’t think that it means that your family doesn’t care. Some people don’t like to have their walls cluttered. Now, in my family, and in my own house, I have pictures in my hallway and on a table. But, on my living room walls they are just decorator pics.

So when they are drunk - they can always refer back to the picture to tell which is who...
