Celebrating with the Michael Side

 
 
This year we were especially glad to get together with the Michael side of the family at Kevin's Aunt Emily's home.  We find a way to get together around the holidays each year and this year it was a quick visit, but just as special. Emily included some fun Lebanese dishes in our meal, which were fun to try. 
 
 
 



After we ate the kids got had a lot of fun making music together.  Justin & Jaclyn are both budding musicians and brought over some instruments to play around with.  Clara felt inspired enough to join in via song flute.  Maybe we have some music lessons in her future!?!

 
 

And of course the piano is always a hit with the little ones!  Through the years the kids seem to always flock to Emily's piano during our visits.  It feels like just yesterday Taylor and Hailey were around the same ages up there playing that same lovely "music!"


Too bad Sherri wasn't there or it would have been a complete photo of the Michael cousins, Lisa, Brenda, Amy & Kevin. 

It was a fun way to spend the afternoon, share memories of those we miss dearly and share the blessings of family!
