Blue Monday

Happy Blue Monday.  I'm linking up with Smiling Sally and showing you some blue today!

I love this picture.  This is my father (they call him  Jody blue eyes)(he is standing to the left) and my Uncle Frank and their two sisters, Aunt Doris sitting in the rocker to the far left and my Aunt Liz in the brown shirt.  Aunt Jessie is Uncle Frank's wife and Aunt Essie is her sister.  This was at an Apple Cider shop that was oh so good! 

This is my Daddy and my Aunt Liz sitting on the porch at my Aunt Doris's house.  We enjoyed sitting outside and when the cars would go by we would just wave because it seemed like everyone knew everyone! lol

This is me and my Daddy standing outside of my Aunt Jessie and Uncle Frank's front yard.  I had on boots but we were "going up the mountain" so Daddy made me put on tennis shoes.  He kept complaining that I was overdressed!  lol  He is a handsome man, in my most humble opinion.

Aunt Jessie snapped this shot of me. I just loved being in Tennessee.  I found it so beautiful :)

Aunt Doris, myself, Aunt Liz and Aunt Jessie.  We had gone to a cookout to celebrate Aunt Doris's granddaughter's birthday.  We had a great time while the sun was out....as soon as it went down though.....oooohhhhh myyyyy!  It was cold and we went home! The natives stayed and enjoyed an outside fire pit. 

I had such a great time visiting with my family from Tennessee.  My Aunt Liz gave me a swatch of patchwork cloth from my Grandmother to make a quilt with.  And I heard tons of stories about their childhood that I had missed when growing up.  I hope to go back with my parents or my Aunts and Uncles again in a few months.  I cherished this time with them.

Blue Monday

Happy Blue Monday everyone!! I'm linking up with Smiling Sally and posting something blue today.  If you'd like to join us, click here.

This picture just tickled me!  My nephew, Jason, was under the tree looking for presents with his name on them and his father, Brian, called his name and he looked up just in time for the shot.  His pajamas had a blue cartoon character on them that you can barely see but his underoos had they been visible in this shot were very very blue! lol  It seemed like everytime we looked under that tree those underoos were high up in the air for us to see and we giggled until we almost cried.

He was one determined young man to find his name on his presents!  And he was so expressive when he opened them up.  He would say "what"?  Like "are you kidding me"?  Precious!  I pray you had a joy filled Christmas with all the wonders that children can bring.  My children are both grown so I am blessed that my sister has these little ones that still fill the home with giggles. 

Happy Blue Monday everyone!  May the Lord bless you abundantly today til your cup runs over!

Happy Sunday
