I Heart Faces Weekly Challenge - "Family"

This weeks I Heart Faces theme is family. Family is definitely one of the most important things to me, and this picture is capturing such a moment of realization for me.  I was 18 at the time, and just weeks before I had accepted Christ into my life.  Here we were celebrating my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary (Grandmom is in the white dress, of course).  This is a picture showing complete joy and fellowship between mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts and nieces.  This is a moment of complete joy.  That weekend I flew up to Delaware to celebrate this occasion with my family. And that was the first weekend that I understood what loving a family as a follower of Christ feels like.  Wow, talk about love! :)  And now, everytime I hear "We are Family" I think of this special memory.  And I look forward to us joining together again one day soon to share another memory as such.
