Great time with the fam....

Anyone that has kids knows how hard it is to get a great shot.

These two are big cutups and when they get together...watch out!

Funny, silly words we all called out helped to get this keeper

(Plus Sissy's hand at the camera)...

Oh how we love our Leah and Sam!


Dick got this shot with his Blackberry...they were turning over stones to look for bugs and messing up my Creeping Jenny something awful! ;-)

Kate was not sure about it, but very interested!

Looks like they found one!

Leah and Sam did capture a spider in the house...no fear!

Sis got some great shots I want to share...


Sam




Kate





Leah





Love this one of Cheri and Sam




Our daughter-in-law Cheri..wow!






Brad





Sweet shot of Cheri and Brad



It was a busy crazy weekend full of laughter and fun...

and oh so many memories.

I love the way Sam and Kate call me Re-Re...grabs my heart!

Leah always takes my hand and tries to steal away

some alone time we both adore.



I know these are fleeting precious moments...

I must savor each and every one...

Love my family

~Missed you all bunches~

Maree... you have bangs! Very cute, as is your family. Melissa is a talented photographer.

Maree said...

Yep...I cut them myself and then had to fess up to my stylist asap! I was watching "What Not to Wear" and one thing lead to another...thankfully my hairdresser Crystal forgave me and then admitted she liked them...whew!

Hi Maree!

I love all the beautiful,happy faces radating the love of being together and having so much fun!

I love your bangs as well.

What a wonderful week of togetherness!

Son Greg was here for the weekend, and took us out to lunch and shopping after church, and we also enjoyed being together.But later as he was cutting the grass here, and I ran out to ask him something, a small rock propelled from the lawn mower and hit my right eye. It seemed okay though, and it was just a small rock. However, when I awoke this morning and felt my eye not feeling right and looked in the mirror, I almost fainted! My eye was very injured and bleeding and I spent the day with eye doctors, and my regular doctor, etc. So it was no fun. I have drops to put into the eye and have to go back Friday, but the doctor says the eye will heal, it will just take a little time. But you should see me! I look like the ogre from outer space or worse. Of course, I'm walking around with sunglasses now, and best friend Eileen says I look like a celebrity! Haha.

Anyway, I made this much too long, but I am late commenting, and will not be around too much for a few days.

A little prayer would be appreciated.

The last picture about stole MY heart!! How precious; I am sure baby Jack loves to hear his Daddy on the guitar! All your grandbabies are adorable & such miracles :) God has truly blessed you beyond measure - you have been faithful.

Kate reminds me of Mya with her skin & those eyes.... You can tell she is still in the learning to trust phase - she is coming into her own - so very beautiful to watch the transformation...

And Leah just gets prettier every day..she will be off to Kindergarten soon.. :(

I heart your bangs!!

Great family shots! What a wonderful time you are all having. Love the first picture with your grands, and hubby. I love your bangs and agree with Nana Trish they make you look younger.

Tell your daughter she is a great photographer.
