Back Home.....

Well, we are back from vacation.  I love going away, but I always love coming home.  We had a wonderful time with our family!  It was fun, relaxing and hot!


Before everyone arrived on Friday.

Once everyone arrived, the men all went to play golf.

And then off to the Beach. Nieces and Nephews playing with grand kids.

The baby was so good.  Sometimes we actually took him to the beach.  Other times Grandpop stayed up at the house and babysit.

Daughter along with her cousins.

 We even took an updated family picture.  It was a little windy, so I am not sure if I like the way they turned out.  I also think it was too early in the evening to take the pictures, I prefer to take pictures a little later, but we had two different families to get photographed and my daughter wanted to start earlier.  I haven't seen the pictures that everyone else was taking, so I am hoping some of them turned out better then mine.

Of course, some of us needed some refreshments during the photo shouts!

Then, it was time for our seafood fest!  Everyone had a job.


Scallops, fish, lobster, crab, muscles along with corn, salad, baked macaroni and many more good side dishes!


Sunday night I made baked Ziti for everyone along with garlic bread and salad.  Some more relaxing along with some computer help from # 2 son.  Trying to teach me "light room" for pictures.  I think that is going to take some practice on my part!


Then it was time for everyone to say good bye, until next year!  Hubby and I stayed until Tuesday, which was wonderful.  We didn't have to sit in traffic on Sunday night!
We have to thank Andy and Nancy (sister & brother in law) for hosting our week and weekend!


Now back to reality along with laundry and cleaning!

  2. What an amazing time this looks to be. I can see what a happy family you have. How lucky you are!! I love the family photos and I really like the one where everyone is just hanging around the beach. It's so unique and the light is just perfect.
