Holding On...


You may think I've fallen off the face of the earth; it's been a very long time since I've been blog-present (my own or yours) but, no, I'm holding on and I shall return... soon. Last week was my own milestone birthday and coming up this week we'll launch into our family's birthday "high season", four in the next three days! We celebrated the combined birthdays with a family dinner at our home last evening. It took a little effort but we did manage to corral all the little ones into the same spot for one brief, shining moment... the highlight of my day!
Life is Good!

    Grandma has her hands full--literally!
    What a handsome group. That is a lot of birthdays to squeeze into a few days time. Hope you had a happy one!

    That is a fete in itself. We tried with all four once, the only one that didn't move, couldn't because he was too young. Happy birthday.

    Happy Belated Birthday; I understand about so many birthdays in one week-we had two grands(one family)have birthdays last week and one today. Oct. comes and we have three more within a week-time flies by quickly.
    Have a great afternoon.
