At last I managed to get at least some of the family together for an outdoor picture! Ashley is feeling greatly improved, and Ashton is now gaining weight and ready to venture out for more than a trip to the doctor. Nothing much to tell about this picture, except that for me, it was a pleasure to get away from the indoor lighting. It’s been a wonderful visit with the family, full of time together that we only get to have in small doses. Three weeks has been an absolute treasure! There’s little more to say than that!
(Tue, 11-09_While, like all of us, I love hearing from you and receiving comments, I can see my computer time (now in Italy) is going to be very abbreviated. I’m writing offline & will drop by an Internet Café to upload to 365 before going off for more sightseeing. Even I am amazed how little spare time I have when the days are full. You’d laugh to know how often I think of one and another of you, but for the present I won’t be commenting on 365. Sorry to have to stick this on every picture for awhile, but I want you to know why you haven’t heard from me!)
I have been thinking of you, Louise. I hope you're having a wonderful time in Italy! This picture is just the best! Your family looks so happy to be together and I don't blame them. It's harder and harder to get everyone together as your children get older and have their own families. Hugs from me to you...
This is a beautiful family photo! How nice. The resemblance between you and Heather as well as Ken and Ashley is uncanny. What a sweet picture and family. I know you realize how lucky you are.
Such a priceless family photo...a treasure for little Ashton - who, by the way, is absolutely beautiful! It appears that he is thriving and growing and changing by the day.
what a treasure this picture is! so glad that you are having fun in italy. feel sort of silly. forgot about the trip and then created a discussion trying to figure out what had happened to you! luckily it only took 3 responses for my memory to be jogged (((blushing furiously)))....
This has been a busy year for you! Do you travel this often regularly? I am very jealous. My husband and I are planning a trip to Italy ( and a few other countries ) around our 10 year anniversary if all our planning goes well. I look forward to seeing your pictures there!
Great family picture, the baby looks adorable and surrounded by love!
What a wonderful family photo, Louise!! You all looks so happy!! :-) I love your hair! :-)
So glad to see some uploads from you! We all miss your comments on 365, but I know when things get busy time flies! I've been guilty of the same lately - there is so much going on, that I barely find half an hour to take and upload a picture! But, I like it like that! :-) Italy must be wonderful! Enjoy every minute on your trip and make sure you take lots of photos for us!
Wonderful family shot to treasure always.
Another generation.
I understand fully about your internet cafe etc & tying to find time - just enjoy your trip ! We all understand :)
Take care!
