Big Family....

 I am one of eleven children. I learned to share at a very early age.:):) This photo is from last year. There won't be as many at the picnic today. But I'll be thinking of them , with love.
This is uncle Bill and aunt Sherry. Uncle Bill had a surgery this past week. He is still in the hospital. We are praying he will return home soon and be on his way to recovery. Aunt Sherry wanted to be by his side today, which is understandable. Wishing all of you a beautiful and safe 4th. xoxo

  4. That is a very large family, Susie! I have one sister, three years younger, and my husband is three years younger than his brother. My mother was even an only child. So, we don't have that large family history. Enjoy your day! xo Nellie

  7. I hope your Uncle feels better soon. I had no idea that you were one of 11. How amazing to grow up with so many siblings!

  10. I'm sitting in bed looking at blogs and listening to the boom boom boom of fireworks and guns! OH MY - I LOVE IT!

    We are having a cookout on Saturday. I've decorated a bit myself this year!

  11. Aren't large families great? I'm the oldest of 10. I used to think my family was strange, but so many of my blog friends also come from large families.

    Hope you had a great 4th and that your uncle recovers quickly.

  12. I can't imagine what it would be like to grow up in a family that size. Wonderful that you all get together when you can. Hope your uncle recovers nicely.
