Thankful on Thursday

Yesterday was a lovely day. My husband was able to catch a beautiful moment in time. I thought I would share  them with you as it makes me so thankful to be at this place in life. These are my grand children and their uncle. That tree has stood there all of my life, I climbed it, my children climbed it and now my grand children. Such a place of memories.














The babies were with the mommies. It was a nice day, I do hope yours was as nice.
Have a  lovely Thursday,
~Kim~
Thanks for having patience with me and all of these photos. I just found out how to load a bunch of pictures. I never knew how before. :) I promise I won't make it a habit.

Please make it a habit! When I see pictures like these it makes the miles between us seems shorter! And, once again, you provided some wonderful nostalgia through your words!

what a fabulous tree. a great climbing tree. a great FAMILY tree. :)

Oh that tree is absolutely PERFECT for kids and how so fortunate that you have witnessed three generations playing and climbing on that old tree. Maybe another generation climbed that tree even before you did.

What a great day this must have been for every one. Your grandkids sure love their young uncle. It's beautiful to see.

Thanks for sharing these pictures with us.

Hugs,

What a perfect tree for climbing ... and what memories ... you climbed it, your kids climbed it and how your grands are climbing it. How awesome! And share away with the pictures! We don't mind at all!

Sounds like a perfect 4th of July to me. ;-) Ours was quiet, but I did get some T-time last night, so it's all good.

What a sweet 'family tree'!

Love that you have had the tree throughout the generations, and that you captured your grands climbing it too.

Have a lovely weekend!

Smiles :)
