With the family home yesterday to celebrate my birthday
everything felt just right!
It's hard to articulate how I was overwhelmed with emotions. With each of the 'kids' living out on their own, I hadn't realized how much I love it when they are all able to come home at the same time.
We enjoyed a super yum dinner of Roast Turkey, Dressing, Gravy, Roasted Potatoes with Bacon & Cheese, Baked Scalloped Cauliflower, Broccoli & Carrots, Butternut Squash Puff, Green Beans with Sauteed Onions, Coleslaw & Raspberry Jell-O. oh and for dessert, who could forget the Pumpkin Praline Cheesecake with caramelized pecans on top! thank you - Kryssi! We spent the rest of the day laughing, chatting, laughing, playing games, laughing, snacking, laughing. hottubbing and did I mentioned we laughed, oh how we laughed!
Then I read this, and I sat at the computer with tears welling up in my eyes.
What did I do to deserve such a wonderful family?
Thank you Gerard, Krystle, {Bentley}, Wayne, {Sasha}, Darcy, Kyle & Teya - it was such a blessing to have each of here to celebrate with me.
