Papaw Teddy, Max and I (nana). We loved our time with the family on the 4th. We had good food, some fun play time, and lots of conversation and hugs. Wonderful baby holding time too.
Here's Emma with Max, she's his young aunt(12). She says she is the favorite aunt. Max is 7 Months.
Here she is with Layla. Layla is now 17 months old. Walking and talking of course.
This is Brock , Emma, and Lynzie.,brother and sisters. Brock is father of Layla. Lynzie is mother of Max. So Emma is auntie to both babies.
This is Skylar, Savannah (sitting), and Emma. These are the last of our grandkids still in school.
This is Steve and Suzy. Steve is my baby brother. He keeps us all laughing.
My sister Pam, me , Angie, and Liz....I am not sure who took this picture but they did not get all of Layla in it. Our 4th was a fun time with family and friends. Angie's husband Mark was very sick with the flu and never got out of bed. He has never been this sick. Angie had used sterile wipes all over the house , for her gatherings.
Today, I have a dentist appointment, time for cleaning and x-rays. Every 6 months. I hope all of you had a great holiday. This week is off to a fast start. Summertime !! XO
Looks like such a fun time! I'm sure Emma IS the favorite aunt.
ReplyDeleteKathy, Some times Emma is competitive....as in being the favorite grandchild, aunt bff...so on. LOL. But she does talk with the babies and plays with them lots...so they know her face very well and light up when they see her. I am glad she is good with them. Blessings for a great rest of this week. Here it is Tuesday already. oxox, Susie
DeleteWhat a great 4th you had Susie! Looks so fun!!! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI never get enough pictures at gatherings or very good ones...so much going on at once. Or I just get so involved with talking or playing. Holding Max was really nice for me...I never see him enough. Hope your time was blessed. xoxo, Susie
DeleteWonderful pictures of your family. I can see you made a lot of good memories.
ReplyDeleteLinda, We missed some of our family members who had other engagements or function to attend. But most were there and the babies.So fun. Hope your day was filled with family too. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

Thank you Kris. I loved my time with the babies...I just do not get to see them enough. Hope you and Terry got to be with your children and grands. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteThe perfect kind of a 4th...all except for the poor guy with the flu! Nothing like a couple of babies around to liven up the party!
ReplyDeleteVee, Having time to just hold the babies and make them laugh was so fun. I did well eating also. Only one hot-dog and some fluffy mixture with berries. Blessings to you honey, hope you had family near. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

ReplyDeleteThank you so much Susie. It's holidays where most of the family is around that I miss our parents the most. But holding babies is a comfort . Blessings to you, hope your day was great. Love you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteIt really does look like you had fun. Makes me wish I was a part of your big family! Sweet hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteDiane, You are one of the sisters in my big blog family. LOL. Don't you wish there was a convention we all could go to. I would so love that. Layla was going around saying Emma...so hard to believe she's growing so fast. Of course Emma was loving that. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie
Deleteyou always have the best times, and your family are beautiful,,
ReplyDeleteThank you Laurie.. I did love being able to hold the babies, get hugs from everyone. We even watched some old home movies that had mommy in them. I miss my parents on the 4th...cause most of our family gets to be at this gathering. Blessings to all of you. xoxo, Susie
DeleteSo glad you enjoyed the day with your precious family. Love the smiling faces.
ReplyDeleteThank you Karen, I hope you had a good holiday also. I only get to eat two hot dogs a year and the 4th was one of those days. I cheated this year though....cause I had one at my daughter's class picnic, one at my SIL 's family father's day outing and one on the 4th.I just try to not eat many of them. LOL. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteThose are great family pictures, Susie! Looks like you had a nice time (except, of course, for the poor guy with the flu!). -Jenn
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn, It is so hard to get that many people to sit still for photos. I would love to get group family photos. My little brother had just mentioned of all the years when we were all together...there's only one picnic of the entire family of mom, dad, and all us siblings.( eleven kids) My SIL has pneumonia . So scary. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI love this picture of Emma with Layla. She's getting so big and such a cute girl. It looks like you had a fun time with the family on the 4th of July. That's a sweet picture of you and Ted. :)
