So this blog is like four days late... Grandpa's birthday was Saturday! BUT after a full day of celebration and getting home late, I just went straight to bed. Then, the next days was Mother's Day and I didn't want to do anything. Sooo, I'm just now getting to this post... Late but still very important! :)
Saturday was spent in the hot sun with family! We played ball, flew kites, blew bubbles, BBQed, rode horses and quads, ate strawberry short cake and raspberry cheesecake, opened presents, and took LOTS of pictures! Oh, and Isaac went without a nap so when it came to holding still for pictures at the end of the day, he wasn't having it! Especially when a quad and a helmet were sitting in front of him! Shaun's older brother came down from Fresno with his two kids, his fiance', and her two kids. It has been wonderful reuniting with him after all these years. God is definitely healing broken relationships and showing us that family is one of the most precious gifts we have been given! Papa and Nana even graced us with their presence! It was a wonderful day... One worth repeating!

It was such a wonderful day wasn't it? So good to get family all together. I wondered if it would ever happen. God is faithful.
Aaww....Looks like you had a wonderful, All-American, family day. So nice!
From Nana and Papa, Isaac's great grandma and grandpa.
It was so wonderful to see the offspring of one of our three daughters all together having such a long awaited reunion. What a blessing. Our granddaughter-in-law, Isaac's Mom, forgot to mention there was also fun in the pool that day. Nana forgot to bring her bathing suit, and being such a mermaid (?) had to borrow one from one of her granddaughters......and NO it wasn't a bikini!
