Lucky me! Lucky all of us!

Lucky me! Not only did I marry a wonderful man but I married into a wonderful family! We get together every year and love it but this year was extra special...My mother-in-law treated us all to a Carribbean cruise! Lucky all of us! She had been planning this for about a year...and now we have fabulous memories. Isn't that the most thoughtful thing to do for your family? She's really incredible...no wonder the family is, too! Below is a picture of us all together on a dress up night on the cruise. A great looking bunch, huh?! It's hard coordinating our big family from coast to coast with work schedules, illnesses, babies, etc. My mother died only two weeks later. However, God blessed us and everything worked out...now we sat back, sharing pictures, laughing and remembering when....What a lovely gift for a lifetime.
