Find Mom 4/52


I know this is going to be my "cheater week" but I thought I would do something a little different; since my photo ops with my children have been few and far between.

Since this week, is my week #4, I thought it only fitting to have a picture with 4 moms + 4 dads. This picture was taken in July 2007. Gordon, and his brothers, planned a sibling trip (w/o children I might add) to Quebec, Canada. We rendezvoused in Sharon, Vermont and spent the evening in a bed and breakfast (Brass Lantern Inn), located in Stowe, Vermont. We drove around ate dinner and this picture was taken at the [Von]Trapp Family Lodge (yes, from the Sound of Music, if you want to learn more click here), located in the hills of Stowe, Vermont.

I LOVE getting together with Gordon's family. We don't see each other very often because we are spread across the US from the west coast to east coast. When we get together it is feels like we were never apart and it is fun to rekindle our relationships.

We had a GREAT time!

Great family photo. I think it's just as important for kids to see their parents with their siblings too.
