>>>so we made a 'family quilt' with everyone's first and middle name embroidered in the quilt. It hangs on our wall.

That is sooo nice!>>>

Thank you!! I thought so too and it solved the being the "Blank" family. We are a family, just have different last names.

Nothing wrong with having different names. I grew up with a different name than my mom (long story there). But it never effected me because I grew up in a very loving family.

I would have gone with being Mr. & Mrs. Damm, and the whole Damm Family, but that's just me...
