It has been a week of looking at old pictures, telling family stories, laughter and tears. I really love old family pictures, so I picked a few to share with you.
Mike and his mom when he was a young sailor, about 1970.
All of the boy cousins with their grandma at a family wedding, about 1999. Our boys are the two on the right.
And a more recent photo of my mother-in-law, having her very favorite meal at Red Lobster, fried shrimp! That was the last time Mike was able to take his mom out for lunch back in July of this year.
I love that look on her face!
Thank you for indulging me, one more time. Hope you are having a lovely Thanksgiving, however and wherever you celebrate!
Thanks for visiting on "I Like Thursday"

Hi Diann! What lovely photos of your MIL and what wonderful memories all of you have with her. You'll be able to hold those close and smile through the tears. It's always tough to lose a beloved family member but it seems even more so near the holidays. I hope you are able to have fun sharing happy memories of Goldie. I wish a Happy Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

Thanks for sharing those sweet memories with us, Diann! Sending quilting hugs as you navigate the first of a year of firsts without Goldie.
Thanks for sharing your memories! The photos are priceless! Hope your holiday with family is wonderful!
Those photos make me smile. It's always good to see someone loved. Happy Thanksgiving.
Such a beautiful tribute to your MIL. Thank you so much, Diann for sharing your family photos - priceless! It is photos and stories that make our family members always near. Wishing you a blessed Thanksgiving.
Memories and old photos are something to be thankful for. She was such a beautiful woman, love the photo with her when Mike was a young sailor.
Wonderful photos of wonderful memories, thank you for sharing them with us.
although funerals are never a great reason for a get together it always helps to have such memories - it is actually fun to see all the relatives you rarely see it is just the reason for getting together that isn't happy
What wonderful memories our photos bring out.
Hugs to you and your family...Daddy tells me, "Make memories, it's later than you think." So true. You all seem to be quite talented at making and recording special memories.
