A Houseful of Blessings

 Last weekend our Okie family blessed us with a visit! 

Everyone gathered on Saturday to celebrate Granny's 87th birthday. And sadly, this is the only group shot anyone took. Baby L was napping, but we had 12 in the house that day.

E helped Granny with her birthday candles and then performed Zip-a-Dee-Do-Da for her.

It was a treat to see my BIL whom we all adore. He no longer drives but my SIL brought him and it was really good for all of us to be together.

And it just melted my heart to watch these 2 cousins interact

The sandbox was a busy place

And a favorite place to play                                      

As folks visited on the deck

Baby L spent every spare minute on his balance bike

                                           

He seriously racked up the miles

            

And the old 25 yr old wagon is still going strong

 and rolling into the next generation 

Our boy has always had a passion for bugs and snakes and lizards and he caught a garden snake to show the littles

Cousin charades kept us in stitches

It truly was a precious weekend

And yes, there will be a 2nd post. 😂
