A weekend with the family and hot dogs on the grill says summer to me. Looks like a happy time with your beautiful family. Those babies are adorable!

Looks like the reunion was a huge success, Carol. What a gorgeous home and pool, and what a beautiful family. Bet the precious babes enjoyed Nana and Paw Paw's lap.
You know, I can't belive that your a great grandma, either. But I bet you enjoy that honor!
Thanks for sharing some of the fun. Now it's time for a little rest, then back to the garden, eh?
Have a great rest of the week.
Hugs,
Renie
You have a beautiful family and your son's home looks quite nice as well. I'm sure you loved spending time with everyone. You and hubby look very content.
I'm telling everyone that while I don't have any plans to go anywhere this summer, I am planning to take a 'Grammacation.' The first part of which starts this week. My family in Huntsville is coming down and we are taking the grands to the zoo. The next day will be spent with my daughter and her son. Later this summer I'm taking a few days to babysit my Texas crowd while their parents have a little get away.
Welcome home! Beautiful house and yard and of course, family! Thank you for this...I feel like I got a peek at Oklahoma...o, how I would love to go back!
What an incredibly beautiful family and home.
Thanks for sharing the photos Carol, you looked so happy in the pictures....
I bet the children loved you being there!
So glad to have you back....

What a lovely home and great pictures.
Thanks for stopping by to see me. I haven't been blogging long and doing it for fun.
I have been fortunate to have a small following of outstanding writers from which to hone my skills.
I read your bio; you notice we have a common love: football, but different teams. However, I watch all pro football I can, regardless of who is playing.
Some of us Southerners have a saying, that when a person moves to the South, you never hear of any of 'em moving North.
Wow you have quite the family, Carol! My sons wait so long to have children I may not live to see any greats!
What a wonderful family reunion! Great to see happy families! Thanks for sharing, Carol!
Stillwater, Oklahoma...! Nothing still about it over the weekend, huh? What a lovely place for a reunion! Did you get IN the pool? Looks so inviting, but oh, the horror of getting into a swimsuit. (For me, I mean!)
Sounds like the perfect weekend!
That was a lovely family post! Great pics.
I want to swim in that pool!
Thanks for visiting/joining my blog. I look forward to reading yours and all those you love to read as well.
