Building our own slide – Jan. 2017
Regardless of what happens in life, when it’s all said and done, family matters most. Our family is our top priority and although we don’t always get along (hey, we’re family, right?) we still care deeply for each other and we have each other’s backs. It doesn’t matter how often our kids fight, we’re always reminded of how much they love each other when one of them leaves for an extended period of time. The waterworks start to gush and everyone is excited to welcome that person home. So what’s life like with six active and busy kids? There’s a lot of good, bad and ugly, but in the end, we’re still family. Read on to discover the stories that make up our lives…
