Family is everything. The members of our family are not just blood relatives or those with whom we have exchanged vows. Family is really about certain kinds of relationships – those with whom we have built strong bonds of friendship, affection, and love.
Each of us is a thread in the tapestry of life being woven for each of our family, as they are in turn a thread (or more) in our own life’s weavings. The threads of our tapestries can be weak, tenuous and few, or strong, thick, and many as we co-mingle our lives in many ways. In our mind’s eyes, Judy and I can see the strong, beautiful, interweaving threads of our lives, as we have already shared so much, including our children, our brothers and their families, and all of our other relations.
As we celebrate our day of harmony, we also celebrate with you all of our extended family. The pictures below are random samplings of our family members.
