Or at least, they were when this photo was taken.
My husband was setting up the tripod when I made a mad dash upstairs to change. “You can’t leave!” he hollered, but I was back in a flash minus the oversize t-shirt and baggy sweats. I am sadly lacking in humility, you see, though my lack of make-up should count for something.
Anyway, my friend and her family are gone but not forgotten. The butterfly clip that Helen was wearing on Tuesday…Allister’s old-fashioned metal pencil case…the itty bitty pair of Ian pants that I found at the bottom of the hamper…all of this is a reminder to us that the house is suddenly a whole lot quieter.
Isn’t it hard to say goodbye?
Ad Jesum per Mariam, in times of joy and loneliness,
what fun to spend time with soul sisters!
I’m glad for you!
So glad you had a nice time!! She (and you) has a beautiful family!!
Forget make-up, you look beautiful, you don’t need it at all!
Great picture!!
So glad you had such a wonderful time! What a blessing.
What a beautiful gang — looks like you had a lot of fun together. Thank God for good friends!
You look great — embrace the no-make up thing. All the stars are doing it, don’t you know? Well, not really, but they do appear, airbrushed and fake eyelash-less in People now and then. Not that I read People …
And is that Faith & Family I see in the background? I think I'd know that Got Monks? ad anywhere.
Look at all those beautiful children! What blessings!
Beautiful picture. I’m so glad you all had such a good time. It is hard to say goodbye. Every time we leave Baton Rouge, it breaks our heart in two.
Hey, Danielle just admitted to taking more than a look at the folks in the picture. 🙂 Anyway, you all look lovely! You do not need makeup, darling. You look wonderful, youthful, and full of happiness!
