This time instead of our normal catching up on the latest he had a request. Because of the snow he couldn't get his big rig to a drop off and was stranded only 12 miles from our house and was wondering if we could pick him up. We were more than happy to do so, and the rest of the day was spent talking and being the great uncle that he is he had to play games with each of the children.
I was sad to see him leave this morning, but thankful for the chance we had to spend some time together once again. Family times are the best!
Good Morning Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful surprise. A loving family member dropping by to spread a little love and get a little shelter from the weather.
I am so tickled for you. Beautiful share and lovely photo of the family.
Have a great Thursday. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
What an unexpected pleasure!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had that time together.
What is that game called? Kerplunk? I looooooooved that game and had forgotten about it! That's a great little surprise that he got to come visit you!
ReplyDeleteI fondly remember that game, too! Now I will have to keep an eye out for one. Thank you for that little glimpse into your day. I love your daughters' dresses by the way. I am so thankful that after 3 boys I have a lovely little 'lady baby' (as I call her) to make beautiful, feminine dresses for.
ReplyDeleteG'morn, JC ~ What a lovely pics of the family love ... it is so sweet. These are the moments that one treasures forever ... don't you just love these captured precious times.

What a nice treat for your family. I bet they cannot wait till he comes back again. Take care
ReplyDeleteLove the family time -- and the dolls watching from the sofa/couch!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you were able to "rescue" your brother from the snow, and then have a wonderful family time together.
ReplyDeleteI also enjoyed the photo that you chose to go with this post. It appears as if everyone is having a good time being together.

We had Kerplunk too - and what a fun day it looks like you all had!! What a neat surprise. ♥
ReplyDeleteI LOVE snow days with surprises like this. Your kids will remember this as a special day and you will, too!
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you that you got to have your brother there and so happy for your brother that he had a good place to go to since he got stranded.
ReplyDeleteoff topic, but why is the loveseat to my family room furniture in your house?? LOL :)
ReplyDeletei noticed your brother wearing a blue jeans, is he no longer amish too, or is he allowed to wear them while doing his work?
