Lookee what I finally found! In a mislabeled box no less! But, thank God!! I can now say that everything we owned prior to our move has made it here unbroken and in tact. I'm so glad! God is so good!
Here's the precious pictures you know we all want to take with us . . . (click on images to enlarge if you want a closer snoop - hey, I don't mind) . . . I was worried about the Divine Mercy picture 'cos I feel funny with it not hanging above my front door.
In this picture, you can see in the back and old old picture of Madonna and Child that was given to Chief by his late paternal grandmother. I really was worried about it, too. Oh, those kids of ours are cute, too. That was so long ago . . . and in the white frame is Chief's parents (just about a month before Rick passed away) . . . and in the center is Pat's wedding (Chief's younger brother).
I can admit I was sweating this recent family picture we had done. I even paid for the frame thinking it would be a nice addition to our blue walls (I am almost ready to buy paint and get on that project) in the living room. I see the wrought iron Longaberger pillar candle holder needs a good dusting off and now I need to go buy some pillar candles. Ahem.
Anyway, it's a material and sentimental happiness I share with you here. Now we just need to locate the hammer and nails (naw, we already have that bit sorted).LATER: Teenie asked me where my picture of Mary is . . . the one called L' innocence. Crap. I haven't a clue. Well, if it turns up, great, if not, I'll buy it again. It's one of my favourites. I wouldn't mind having more of his work in my house anyway.

Pictures are precious and some irreplaceable so that is wonderful that you found them. I have the same picture (the mercy one) of Jesus hanging on a wall downstairs.
Enlarged your recent family photo and it is really nice...will come back later to enjoy the rest as I am up way too early and have lots of stuff to do.
blessings and hugs,

SOOO happy for you!!! The pics are grand and know how I prize mine! Now you can post them safely 'round the house! Have a wonderful weekend! Cathy
Pictures are always the last thing I put away when I move. They as the final pieces, making a house a home.
Pictures are such precious keepsakes. They capture a family's legacy like nothing else (imho) ... I'm glad you found yours!
