Welcome to the Sept 10th (usually on the 5th of the month) FAMILY x 12 Blog Hop when we all share a photo of our families each month.
We are a small group of bloggers who share the same goal - to get more photos of our families (all together) throughout the year. So, we all join forces on the fifth of every month (except this month) and share our one (or more) family photo for the month!
My two photos this month are from early in September when our dear friends from Japan were visiting. These two "girls" now young women, were the flower girls in our wedding 15 years ago! Here we are at the County Fair.

This is the first time they have come to visit without their parents. We had a great time doing all the touristy things. And here we are at one of the kids' favorite froyo places- Yogurtland. Nothing beats serving yourself!
It's a small group for the blog hop this month. But that's OK! Next on the blog hop is RUTH!
Oh! Before you go, I should let you know that for the next 30 days, I will be posting daily. I know amazing, huh, after so little posting from me over the past six months or so! I meant to start on October 1, but it came and went without a dedicated blog post, so I started yesterday. Better late than never! My theme will be FAVORITE PHOTOS from my ARCHIVES. Some will be from several years ago and others will be more recent. I'm totally indulging myself, but please stop by if you'd like to see!
Now, off you go for more FAMILY PHOTO inspiration!
