Family and the Holidays

As the years have gone by it seems like I only see my extended family on Holidays anymore.  We used to play together now we see each other once or twice a year.

This year it happens that Blake’s birthday was the day after Thanksgiving so we celebrated with a cake for him on Thanksgiving.

His little brother Jake loved having his photo taken and eating chocolate cake.

 It’s now a tradition to take a family picture outside every year, My Uncle Gary, Aunt Cindy and their kids always take a photo of themselves for their Christmas cards and they always look great.

We went out in the snow this year and did our family photo, every year it gets bigger and bigger.  My family can be quirky but I do love them and miss the ones that have left us.
