My granddaughters got "into it" and each made their father a tie. Here's a picture of him wearing all three paper ties as he stands outside the church, where everyone could see him. Ah, love!

Here is a picture of all seven grandchildren, taken in our new apartment on Father's Day. Johnny and I are so proud of them. Each one is a delight! From left to right, there's Lauren, Caeli, Zachary, Jenna, Pierce, Brittany, and Ara. They're ages 20 to 10.)
What a special time this was for the whole bunch to be together to celebrate Johnny's birthday and Father's Day for the three fathers (Johnny, our son, and our son-in-law).

Such a good-looking group! How did you manage to get that many kids to look so happy and contented, long enough to have their picture taken? They must really have been enjoying the occasion!
ReplyDeleteVery wonderful picture!
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely that you will now get to be there for the "everyday" life of these young people.
