Jeanee shared her pics as I didn't have any of these family pictures. My least favorite thing is to get my picture taken. It really shows in these shots and I look rather like this gal....
Nonetheless I share the pictures! Austere face and all!!
Our family has been slow growing over the years. As far as children...2 boys...1 girl...2 more boys. Our daughter was the youngest of the first group of sons and then ended up the oldest in our 2nd group of sons. It was like having 2 families with our daughter attached to both sets of boys. When our last son arrived...our first son was 17 and a senior in high school! At that point (1975) our children were 17, 15, 12, 4 and a newborn! our oldest grandson is only 5 years older than our youngest son! Interesting equations and it makes for an interesting mix of folks that comprise our family.
Here is how our daughter described us on FB and I agree with her take on things when we all get together!...
We're a tad loud, unruly, opinionated, passionate and stubborn. We love
to laugh, we're big on hugging. We're a colorful blend of vegans,
meat lovers, Mormons to Buddhists, Republican and Democrat, we are
Alaskans. This is the magic recipe of my family. We love fiercely and
play hard. We have the best parents on the planet. How blessed we are.
You could not ask for a nicer group of people than this bunch!! I love them so much!!
