They come and they go
I know I haven't blogged for some time but we have been experiencing a visit from both our sons and their families here in Mexico and I just did not want to take even one minute from their visit. To spend quality time with our grandkids and their moms and dads was our focus and from my assesment, quality time we had. Pictured above are Bill and Heidi, Mason and Maddie.
As I looked through our picture file from their visit I saw literally hundreds of quality pictures that will make one heck of an album but for the moment I wanted to deal more with the arrival and departure aspect of the visit because for so long we waited patiently for their arrival and all too soon it was departure time. Four photo's jumped out at me and they are shown to start this piece and end this piece.
There is one other photo that I think is important to include here. In showing it I don't want to imply that my grandsons are not important to me because for sure they are. Kathleen and I had two boys, and I knew I would not have girls until daughter-in-laws came along. Two of those I now have and I couldn't be happier. The two little granddaughters that you see in my lap in the following pictures----well their pretty special too.
Bill, Heidi, Mason and Maddie stayed a week. Scott, Angela, Ellie and Zak were here for about 3 weeks and we all had a great time. I will be sorting through some great photo's for some time to come. The memories from these visits will linger with all for years and years. Having the memories does not make the parting and departure any easier though. It is quiet and lonely around our pad here in Lo De Marcos Mexico at the moment. Pictured below are Scott and Angela, Zak and Ellie just hours before their leaving for the states.
We too will soon be saying good-by to Lo De Marcos, the fabulous weather, and those terific sunsets.
