Amazed

I continue to be amazed by the generous abundance my sweet parents give to our family. We had our family Easter celebration over the weekend, which included a mini-family reunion for some of our relatives on Mama's side. Mama and Daddy were so gracious and prepared a huge meal for about 30 people. It was a wonderful day spent with family. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the day.

I sure do love these people.
