*********************************
This is so true
Traveling for nearly three weeks we definitely are happy to be home.
We visited so many loved ones during that time and we loved every minute of our time with family we seldom see.
The photo below is a family photo of my husband's sister and her husband's children and grandchildren.
There are 21 one family members in this photo. We did get to visit and spend time with fifteen of them.
A special time for all of us.
Our family who live in Kansas City.
There are too many to name except for my sister-in-law Shirley and her husband Robert in the center. They have raised a wonderful family.
Our last place to visit was in Houston, Texas where our oldest grandson and family live. This visit was to meet our "first" great granddaughter, Lily Mae. She is 4 1/2 months old and so adorable.
Lily Mae...Her shirt says 'love me' and we sure do!
Lily Mae and her great grandpa. (my hubby
I love this photo of our grandson and Lily Mae.
Last photo is of our grandson with his wife Maddi, Lily Mae and Bill and me.
Lily Mae is such a good baby and she was a joy to be with.
No matter how much time passes til we meet again, it is like we never left.
HAPPY BLUE MONDAY
Blessings and love,
JEANNE

Gorgeous family photos - I am doing a you, and am away travelling visiting family and friends! It is a special time.Lily Mae is adorable! I love the big family group with the ladies in the pink very clever photo idea. I'm sorry I'm not in Blue Monday at the moment it is not because I don't think of you, it is more my photos do not have so much blue with the grey clouds of Europe Ha Ha Shush don't tell anyone on England I said that!!
