I’m still here, kinda. On Tuesday we got home from a really nice family vacation at the beach with all our kids, my parents, and my sister. Lovely fun. I’ll post more of the pictures below in a sec. At the moment, however, I’m propped up on pillows in bed with quite a nasty flu, one that one of the grandbabies had on the trip, but that most of our kids haven’t gotten. Yet. Might be a bilious next week at the Owlhaven.
Before I post pictures and lie back down for another nap, I wanted to announce the winner of that lovely book The Nesting Place. It is commenter #43 Tina who blogs at the Miles Clan. Congrats, Tina!
And photos. It truly was a precious week with all our kids around us. We took close to 1000 pictures, but here are 40 of my favorite.
LOVE all the pictures!! Looks like everyone had a wonderful time! Hope you get to feeling better very soon.
Ahhhh what a blessed week! Love the pictures!
