My husband picked up our DIL and grandsons in Kentucky the middle of May so that they could visit for 3 weeks. We had some great times swimming in the pool, playing, eating, and of course snuggling.
Just a few days after our DIL and grandsons arrived, my husband had neck surgery. He's back to work this week and doing well. It will take another 4 weeks or so before he can be back to really feeling much better.

One of my highlights of the visit is the annual "photo shoot". Ever since our oldest grandson was born, my DIL and I always have professional pictures taken. Normally they are taken at a "photo" place in the mall. After 7 years of the same place, we decided we needed a change. I found this great photographer and she took some amazing photos of our 3 adorable boys.

While the kids and DIL were here, my really good good friend Cherri came out for a visit for a few days. We've known each other since our Junior year in high school and we've been out of school for 30 years....so we've been friends for a long time. My DIL, Cherri and I had a great time chatting every night after the kids went to sleep. Lots of laughs and red wine!
Our DIL and grandsons flew out to Seattle this past Tuesday ahead of our son as the Army is moving them to Ft. Lewis. It is so quiet at our house with the boys running around.
Our son graduated from instructor pilot school in the Army this past week. Last night he loaded up his dog Max, his truck, his wife's van, filled up a U-haul with furniture they bought while they were here and headed west with his Mom, Step-dad, and brother who came out from Seattle yesterday to help him drive home.

So if you haven't received your block from the 3 bees that I'm in, I'm so sorry that I'm late. I just couldn't get down to the sewing room....I hope you understand. We are heading out of town for our youngest daughters college graduation. I promise that as soon as I get back in a few days, I will complete the 2 blocks that I owe for May and get going on my June blocks.
Talk to you soon!! Have a great weekend.
The portraits are lovely! It sounds like May and part of June are a whirlwind! I'm glad to hear the hubby is on the mend!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like it was a great visit. The boys sure are cute.

ReplyDeleteSuch cute boys and your son looks just like his dad. Family is what life is all about. Sewing always waits.

ReplyDeleteSo, so cute! What fun you must have had this past month with family! Good luck to your military family. Ft. Lewis was where my son-in-law was stationed for almost a year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the block! It's perfect! And thank you for the extra goodie!!!
