This mama loves family photo sessions! And it doesn't seem like a "family" photo without the 7 big kids, but getting all 18 of us together and dressed up has proven nearly impossible since the last family wedding, over a year ago! The result: no family photos since Kaison has been home! This has to change! So we set out to get a family photo, sans big kids. We were all dressed and at the Cousins'. I even took my good camera.
There were 75 pictures taken, but this is a sample of our reality. Fun times :) We love family gatherings, and the cousins always have a blast. So whether memories were memorialized in pictures is irrelevant; they were made! Happy 2017, y'all!
I, too, so treasure any family pictures we can get. However . . . the last time that we had all of our 12 children together was August 2009. So sad. So hard. Since then, we have added 5 sons and daughters-in-law, and 9 (soon to be 11) grandsons. Oh how amazing it would be to have ALL of us together. :)
Love you! Miss you! Wish I could swing a trip to OK. I sure miss the many road trips that the kids and I took, and all of the sweet blog friends we met along the way.
Laurel, I wish you could come again too!!! And I know your heart longs for your whole family to be together. May the Lord bring that to pass soon. Love you, friend!
