Hi Maria! I absolutely adored your pictures of your Christmas presents. So funny to see the "bigger" kids romping too. At least they have not lost their spirit and joy of fun- that is a real plus when you are raising children. People forget that children are learning while they play.
I could not help but notice that you all were in SHORT Sleeves! Jeepers, I jealous! LOL Here it is 10 degrees and the winds are whipping . Wish I could ship it to your air conditioner. ~smile~
When you came to visit me in blogland you asked about size of my family. That can really be quiet amazing because I started out as an only child. The DH and I had 3 children -two boys and a girl. Oldest son married his wife and her 4 children and then they had one between them - to total 5. DD has 2 and youngest son just got married this summer.
But then I was told to be prepared for this Spring because we will become "great-grandparents" to 3 more . So, when I discovered my love of sewing I knew it would come in handy. I just wish I had a sharper brain-that would come in handy for me.~smile~
My Mama always told me , "if you are going to do something - do it to the best of your ability." I have always lived up to that until a year and a half ago when some teenagers hit DH and me head on. Ever since my concussion things just do not add up right and I make SO many mistakes, and it seems to be getting worse here lately. But I keep on trying .
Oh Oma how embarrassing, not that photo! now everyone can see how silly i looked riding that bike. I want one!
ReplyDeleteIt does look like they were enjoying those a bit too much. How many will be under next years tree?????
