Family & Stitching
Today we celebrated Todd's Grandmother's 80th birthday. We wrapped up the day with family photos... I really wish I had thought to bring my good camera. I took my point and shoot with me, and boy can you tell from the quality of the pictures!!!
The whole family from Todd's Great Grandmother at the age of 97, to the youngest in the family, Liam who is 16 months.
What a wonderful family gathering! My mom turns 80 this year...i guess I should start planning on something!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great family get together! Tell Todd that he needs to get more pictures taken; he's quite good looking.
ReplyDeleteCelestial Dragon is looking wonderful. I wish I could stitch as fast as you do.
97 years to 16 months!! Pics like these are really wonderful arent they...
ReplyDeleteCelestial Dragon is progressing great. You have to tell me what all those signs mean? I know the second one is Longevity (from your earlier post)
Great family pictures, Dani.
ReplyDeleteLovely family pictures. Great progress on Celestial dragon.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures. Thanks for sharing them. CD is progressing beautifully.
ReplyDeleteGreat family pictures! It's wonderful when these opportunities come up, when you can take photos of several generations...
ReplyDeleteLove the progress on CD!
Wonderful family pictures!
ReplyDeleteNice pics, how wonderful to be able to celebrate these milestones all together.
ReplyDeleteI'm avidly following your CD progress, it's so beautiful!
You have to have some spunk to get to 97. Wow, now that's inspiration if ever there was. Congratulations to the entire family.
ReplyDeleteBe always in stitches.
Nice family photos! Nice stitchy progress, too. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures Dani !! My mother is 80 on July 10, I also look forward to it! but this will only have a very small family gathering! Me and my husband, our daughter and husband and two grandchildren .... that is the whole family! :-(
ReplyDeleteCelestial Dragon is looking wonderful.You made a great progress!
Hugs Ingrid
Five generations in one photo ... now that is impressive ... and a very great blessing and joy for you all, I am sure.
ReplyDeleteThe progress on TW's Celestial Dragon is also impressive ... you do know how to hold your focus!
Isn't it nice when so many can gather together for family celebrations, Dani? I love seeing the different ages all connected by a common bond... Congratulations to Todd's Grandmother--80 is something to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your Celestial Dragon, too... it looks like a ton of work with so much backstitching, but it is really impressive :)
What wonderful family pictures! The TW is looking pretty good too.
ReplyDeleteThat is a feat getting all those generations together! Good looking family!
ReplyDeleteCelestial Dragon is moving along quite speedily (Is that a word?)
It's looking good.
Wonderful family pictures!
ReplyDeleteNice family pics Dani! I like the one of you and Todd...cute couple.

It doesn't matter what camera you use, just the fact that you got those great pics! My favorite one is the one of you and Todd together.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really nice picture of you and Todd. It's so great that you were all able to get together like that. We're trying to do the same for my Mom's 80th in August.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures - nice progress on CD, too!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful family gathering. Great progress on CD too - looking fab! :0)
ReplyDeleteThat is a BIG family! Looks like y'all had a good time.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful pic of the whole family, its so nice when you have get-togethers and this can happen.
ReplyDeleteCD is looking fabulous
Great to see pictures of you & Todd together.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of that dragon is the blue corners, what TW did with the shading of the blue is amazing.
Wow Dani! I haven`t seen a pic of you lately...you have lost a lot of weight, and you look great! I love your TW also...that blue really is amazing...
ReplyDeleteWonderful progress. Isn't it amazing what a differenct the backstitching makes? I always find that so fascinating. I love the family pictures. It's not many families that range from 16 months to 97 years old. What a blessing! You look great!!
ReplyDeleteWow...that was a great family get together!
