Family Festivity


We gathered Saturday evening at Robyn's house to celebrate Tess' 11th birthday (which was at the end of May), belated Father's Day and my mom's 65th birthday. It was good to see Andrew again, it had been 6 weeks since I'd last seen him.


I didn't take many photos (which I now regret) but this one captures a bit of the feeding frenzy that goes on when it's time for cake and ice cream.



Adam drew this art piece for my parents and filled it with significant places and things from their many years together (almost 43!).


We also met Robyn's new boyfriend, who both Bella and Whitney think is super cute.

It's amazing how much graphic talent you have in your family.

Feeding frenzy is a funny term.

I love it when you post.

Your Mom does not look 65 at all!!! She look so much younger than that!

That artwork that Adam did is so cool!!! What a group of talented people y'all are in your family.

It's too bad Adam can't draw well, but it's sweet that he keeps trying. Bless.

That Adam is something!

Was it strange meeting Robyn's boyfriend? I don't know how I will react when my brother starts bringing around someone new for us to meet now that he is divorced.

Love Rebekah's comment.

Robyn's boyfriend looks more like he could be her son. (maybe it is just the angle) It is still so strange to me that families keep mutating after we thought we were settled. I should probably say evolving... but that isn't always how it feels over here....

Would it be best if I kept my thoughts to myself?

I know I'm supposed to comment on your post, but I just have to say how much I love Amie and her honest commenting!
