You may have noticed I missed last week’s photo challenge. I debated whether to do last week’s or not and finally just skipped it. The theme was “Breakfast” and I considered taking pictures of breakfast and kept forgetting…..I couldn’t think of anything really creative to substitute for real food and to be honest, I didn’t really WANT to come up with anything. Last week was busy spending time with family and everything and my blog fell to the background for the most part. I’ve gotten behind on reading and commenting on other blogs due to the holidays and everything and sorry to those I haven’t got around to looking at. I WILL eventually get caught up but the holidays are going to be a time where other than posting daily, I’m just not going to be on my A game with reading and commenting. I apologize ahead of time and hopefully once the holidays are over with, I can get back to staying caught up once and for all.

I have shown pictures of family before in other posts, but here are some I picked out for this theme. Hope you enjoy! 🙂

I could just do a blog full of pictures of my family…..I love all of these people so much! 🙂
