It really was a great visit and you are right. I so much needed it. When Dad passed away it was so difficult for me being nearly 2,000 miles from my nearest relative for 3 months without a hug!
It was the Governments fault his funeral/memorial wasn't in July, mostly mine that it wasn't in August and the family as a group decided on Sept., but it was a long stretch.
Thank you for your loving support. I might not be able to stay awake to see your entry tonight but I will try. If not I will be by tomorrow. :)))

Wm- So glad we did. It was fun. Blue Cake baby has yet to make her appearance, too! So the party isn't over yet! :D
John- You are so right. Family makes us complete once we see them again! And these two love every minute together. It's a crop because I wanted just their emotions to come through. :D Glad it did!
Nadia- They really have such a pure love for each other.
Maria-I'm so tickled you love it. (((HUGS!))) Love you!
Emile- I love how her hair is swinging there. :) I thought it really added to it and made this image a total "verb" and not just an "adjective" :D

I love you responses to this image and guess what, so many of you have expressed that you could feel their joy. DECEMBERS theme is JOY! So I renamed the title, added some thoughts on JOY and entered it again under the MT. I think it might have a chance. :D I hope so because "JOY" really is what these two emanate when they are together!!
Actually our whole family feels it when we are together. We have great love for one another.
I feel BP is my home away from home and you folks are the reasons why.
Thanks again for your support and friendship and love.
