The Gift of Family

We had a family gathering last month. Our three children, their spouses, and their children camped with us for 2 glorious nights and 3 days on our family's back 80 acres. There were 11 grandchildren ( 2 are now adults and one is in the Marines) . We hiked, played games, sat together around the camp fire, and some of the family went fishing. I cannot adequately express my love and thankfulness to God for His abundant blessings, His gift to us of our family, and that we're still able to get together in spite of distance and life's busyness. Praise Him !

( The picture is of our youngest son and his son, our youngest grandchild, heading off to go fishing.)

Grandkids !

beautiful familhy and so wonderful y'all are able to gather together and just have FUN. Too many folks wait until something big (like surgery or funeral!) to strengthen those ties - but you and Jim have made it a lifelong habit - - being friends and family.

Sounds like a wonderful family get-together! Love your pics! And would love to see more on your chicken blog. My daughter has chickens and used to have frizzles - so adorable!
