A family weekend

We had a very nice weekend.  Our son Andy and wife Nikki came from Kentucky to spend the weekend here. The reason for the visit was to get a new family photo done. Our last one was way out of date. It's not easy to get everyone together to get one, but especially when there are people out of state.

They arrived Friday night and it was just nice to spend some time together.

I made us a nice breakfast on Saturday and we had a relaxing morning. They had errands to run for a bit but we had some time to hang around in the afternoon for a while too.

We were sitting out on the front porch and our sweet neighbor girls came over with sunflowers for us.  :)

We were supposed to meet the photographer at 6, but would you believe - it started getting dark and threatening rain?  So we went and met her a bit early to try to beat the weather.

Ruby and Alaina, waiting for their time for pics.

Bob and Connor had matching caps for a grandpa/grandson pic.

As we were finishing, it started to rain!  We were so thankful we started early...

We came back to our house to spend some time together and eat some ice cream dessert.  Heather was smart and took some pj's for her kids to change into so they didn't get their nice clothes dirty.

Here's the whole gang.

It was so nice to have all our kids together. It doesn't happen that often so when it does, I enjoy it.

Andy and Nikki left on Sunday morning for their 8 hour drive back to Kentucky.

I'll share some of our new photos when we get them!
