WW: Thankful for Family {Linky}

I got to see my sister's sister and meet two of his brothers this last weekend.

I know it sounds confusing. She's adopted. She met her biological siblings 11 years ago. While it could have been a horrible experience, it ended up being the opposite. Her siblings are so nice, down to earth and great because they came up to see her on her 40th birthday.

Prior to 11 years ago, her siblings didn't even know she existed. When she called one of them up, they excepted her right away.

Here's my sisters, mom and I (I'm on the end with the scarf). My Dad was taking photos to. He's not in the photo, but we should have gotten him in there to. By the way my sister is not a Grandma. She did a run called Grandma's Race. She doesn't look 40 to me.


Here's my sister with her sister and two of her brothers. She has a sibling that's older than my mom and dad. It's crazy how the girls look alike. She has a sister that has passed that the other siblings say she looks even more alike. Her brother on the right has her face structure and eyes. Her Dad passed away soon after her birth. Her mom passed away shortly before she contacted and saw her siblings.
