What Family Means To Me
Today in Ontario, it is Family Day, which means that all the stores are closed, and everyone has time to spend together with their loved ones.
As usual, our time will be a little “cut and paste”, a little “here and there”, a little “hit and miss”. My husband is working, and the hospital is busy. It seems everyone is out there breaking bones today.
My oldest son is off at the studio recording a demo with his band The Lionyls – think “lion” + “vinyl”. There is no rest when you want to be a rock star.
And the rest of us are just bumming around, cleaning, cooking, and working out.
While I was putting some stuff away, I came across some old pictures. I thought I’d share a few of my favourites with you in honour of this holiday.
May I present to you “What Family Means To Me…”
For those of you who are new to my blog, my kids are all big now. Sometimes though, I just like to remember their sweet, innocent, non-back-talking little selves LOL…
Just being together…
Cats, cats, and more cats…
Dance…
Little faces…
More little faces…
And even more little faces…
Going to the YMCA.
Going to the beach…
Trips to Jamaica…
Football…
Crazy people…
Playing outside…
And of course, more cats…
Happy Family Day everybody!

Too fast! Too fast! My middle girl turned 19 this past Saturday. I’ll have two in their twenties next year. Thank God for old photos.
Soooooo true! I think we are at the same point. Wasn’t it just yesterday when they were three?
And we were thirty-three?
Love the kid shots! And of course, the cats.
Thanks for sharing these.
Love this! Would love to know where the time goes. If my “baby” doesn’t stop growing, he’s going to top 6′ tomorrow.
kats and kids, is there nothing better?? well, dogs, too, but those aren’t in your pics.
Yes, a dog would fit in nicely…sigh…
Great pics. Love the cats. Makes me wistful for when my son was young. Thanks for sharing your memories.
I was being wistful for when they were younger (and less bull headed) too LOL. JK, but they were much easier to handle when they were little.
Looks like a lovely family full of all things that matter!
I forgot the fighting pics LOL Funny how people don’t have too many of those.
Visited my big boy at college and it never gets easy to say goodbye. Can’t look at any of HIS little guy pics at the moment. *sniff*
I can imagine. I can only do this since mine are sitting right beside me talking loudly and making farting noises LOL.
Darling pics of your precious kiddos.
