"Living in a Shoe"

This month our entire family was together again after 2 1/2 years. It was wonderful! ...and CRAZY! Samuel is the youngest of 12 grandkids. With so many kids and grandkids running around my dad lovingly hinted that he felt like we were "living in a shoe". Yep. Good thing the shoe was able to stretch after it was worn for a while. We had family from West Virginia, Nebraska and Texas all in the same house for about a week. I thought I'd share some pictures.

Don't forget to look at the "slideshow" at the very bottom of the page!

(Man, those are some handsome guys!)

It looks like we wore the kids out,

but little did they know,

it was actually the other way around!

Here's the youngest 4 of the Hogge clan.

Tiny Sam! We almost lost him in the grass.

A beautiful day!

We had to enjoy a few minutes outside

between all the rain storms we've been getting.

This is our front yard.

He has found his hands. Needless to say the binki has taken second place.

It may look easy, but 7 more pounds makes for a sore arm!
