FAMILY

Family is everything to me! I would be lost without them.....any of them, which is how all of us have felt for a very long time.
Just recently my family was re-united with my oldest sister Kelli that we haven't seen or talked to in over six years!!! This has been a long, hard chapter in my family's lives.

The last time we had a picture with all of us together like this was when I was about 7-8 yrs old. That's almost 20 years ago!

Last week my brother, Cole, who is attending law school in Alabama, flew in for a couple days for an interview with a Supreme Court Judge and my sister Reagan flew in from California to be here with everyone as well. It was amazing to have all six kids here all at the same time again. We ate a yummy fiesta dinner that my mom put on, much caught up on everyone's different lives, played Ligretto-a family favorite card game, and laughed a lot!
It's amazing after so many years how there is still that family bond that ties you together with an unconditional love.

All of us again with a couple of in-laws, grandkids, and Kelli's boyfriend, Jack.

Wow Britt. That was a powerful post. It's true, family is everything. What a blessing to have Kelli back after all this time and to still have that family bond.
