Family time :)

Since my last post there have been many exciting things which have happened in the Minich house hold. My oldest brother and his family came down from New Mexico and visited for the weekend of 4th of July. Lillian, his youngest daughter is staying for a month to get some Yaya and Grandpa visit time in Texas.  Three of my other cool bros came and spent a whole day visiting, laughing and making memories on the Minich acre.

 Katie and Joe catching up on life. She's all grown up now and so beautiful.

 This front porch is filled with so many memories. I can't express the joy in my heart when you stand there and watch your brothers love each other! As I stood there I heard the beautiful noise of Chuck playing the guitar, while Joe sang and Tim created a beat with my drum sticks on a practice pad. Marcus began singing and then mama came out and added harmony to their old time song. I stood there and heard so many childhood stories of their lives and how amazing my mother was at such a young age. She taught them so much about love and tenderness, the importance of brother hood and friendship. It was amazing to further be able to talk about my life and the many exciting things which have taken place; to tell them of my achievements and to later have my brother hug me and tell me he was proud of me. I loved being able to talk with Chuck and learning he also wants to study History when he gets into college. This Sunday highlighted my whole year. 

 The grand-kids chilling after running around outside. I love how close in age they are!

 And here they are. The coolest brother on the planet. I can't imagine how proud mama is.

 All the grand-kids except one! Elsa can't stay out in the heat too long, so she had to go home.

 Oh and this guys laugh!. I love it!

The female bunch!

 Selfie with da sister in law!

Not to long after, we got to be apart of Ruby's 1st birthday party.
Loved watching Joseph love on his little girl!

And here they are, the whole Minich bunch. I love taking pictures. I get the pleasure of capturing moments that one day, they will be able to look back on!

Gorgeous Rebeca! Truly enjoy spending time with this mama of four, whom has brought much joy in my life. 

Yaya and the birthday girl.

I think I've said this already, but I can't say it enough. I love and treasure my family, we are all different and have different lives, we have all chosen different paths. My family is crazy and wonderful at the same time. We have all been raised by two amazing people, my father and mother, who have taught us great things and have shown use the meaning of family and the true definition of love! I can't express what it means to be apart of this family and how thankful I am to be a daughter to these two lovely people!
