It’s been a beautiful week with a lot of celebration, tons of good food and, the best part of all, family! It’s rare that all of my children are here at the same time, given that one lives across the country with his family. Having them together is a special treat, even if it was short-lived since another has gone off on a vacation of his own. Still, we’re enjoying this week together and I’m having a grand time being grandma in person.
I hope your holiday season is a warm and wonderful as ours.
All five together again.

OMG, Layla is too adorable!
what a lovely family….
Your family is absolutely beautiful! It looks like you had a wonderful holiday!
Thanks everyone! I’m a little partial to them myself
What a beautiful family you have, Karen. I’m sure it was a fantastic time for you having them all home together.
Layla is just precious. I want to borrow her so I can snuggle with her, too.
A belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!
