True Family Time!

Spending time as a family are memories that will last a life time. Tim's grandmother passed away last week so Tim's brother came out from Spokane with his family, We had a get together at Tim's parents house on Sunday with everything that is going on everyone life's and what is about to be faced the next day we all had a good time. The kids played together, there were a couple of accidents but as a family we worked though it. Tj got hit in the face with a bat from his brother and as everyone was rushing out the door to find out what was going on he was surrounded by people love him and care about him. Treavor cried for hurting his brother because he loves him and didn't mean to make him cry. TJ is doing fine now :) HaiLee was playing with an uncle we think, not so sure but she ran into the screen door and busted the screen right out of it. After making sure that she was OK she was surrounded by family to make sure she was OK. Even Uncle Jeremy took the heat for that one just in case she might have gotten into trouble. Grandpa just shook his head and said it is fine, i have the stuff to fix it.
We played hard that day and laughed so hard that by the time we were ready to head home the kids were tired they fell asleep on the way home. Monday was the funeral and we were able to get together after it for a nice dinner with all of Tim's brothers, aunts, cousins, spouses and soon to be spouses. I love being part of a family that knows how to be a family and be there to make you laugh even during difficult times. I love the fact that i can have my kids go there and know that they are loved and going to be taken care of even if i am not there. That they can be kids and not have to worry if they break something or touch something that it is all tangible stuff and it can be replaced that the kids are more important than a screen door. That family time is more precious than anything in the world no matter how we became the family that everyone is welcomed and loved for who they are.
