OUT OF TOWN AND HAVING FUN
We are in Raleigh, NC visiting our youngest son and his family. Lots more going on later this week but today we went to a lovely park for a picnic. Our granddaughters brought their boyfriends and we chilled and grilled some great food.
My photos tell the story. We were in mixed shade and sunlight and my photos are not great. I do have a surprise photo at the end.
Everyone except me.
Me and my hubs holding Cheri. Yep, where we go she goes. I told you, lots of shade.
Our son John, his MIL, Elana and his wife, sweet Yvonne.
Left, Isaih, boyfriend, Grands, Roger and Molly...Right grand Jacob and boyfriend with Molly, Sean. (Roxie is missing.)
Here she is...Roxie with BF Isaih.
Grands, Jacob, Molly and BF, Sean

We chilled while the grands and BF's went walking to a huge lake near by. A lazy wonderful afternoon with loved ones.
Next is my surpris photo. It was taken in the woods without my good camera but it was a thrill to catch this pic unexpectedly.
A doe with her nearly grown fawns. This is the first time I have ever seen an albino deer in person. What a thrill. I was not very close and the woods were dark but I zoomed in and did the best I could.
Love,
JEANNE
You have a wonderful looking family Jeanne! I have never seen an albino deer! Wow! Have a great week.
Hugs,
Penny

It doesn't get any better than sharing family time like this. You did a very nice job on the photos, shadows and all. My son would love seeing those does, especially a white one.

Looks like you had a glorious time with family, nothing better. Gorgeous grands, but you know that already. I've never even heard of an albino deer--what a fantastic catch.

What a fun get together you must have had here !!!!
Your dog is like ours in the sense ...where we go she goes.
I have NEVER EVER in my life seen an albino deer. SO you KNOW WHAT ??????? DO YOU??????
If the native americans were to tell you, it's an omen. Good luck. Blessed by the Gods. Something good will follow you.

What a beautiful family and I know you had a great time. We are going to meet our children in a couple of weeks for a big meal and some time. They live in Greenville, SC and I don't get to see them as often as I'd like.
What a treat to see the deer ... (())
