Both Sylvia and I come from close families. We love to get together with our siblings and Sylvia’s dad. Last week, my sisters were here as I reported yesterday. On Friday, Sylvia met her father and they joined her sister, Joyce, and her hubby, Paul. They drove toward Cadillac and a visit with sister, Karen, and her hubby, Al.

Karen and Al have a nice deck on the back of their house. Here Dad is sitting with them enjoying the warmth of the sun.

Paul, MacAlister and Joyce sat on the other side of Dad.

Family gatherings call for family meals, and last weekend was no exception. Looks like Sylvia cleaned her plate before she took time to shoot this photo.

Out on the deck, the geraniums continued to bloom.

Down on the lawn, a robin enjoyed a leisurely bath. What? No rubber ducky?
