Where to start???

Of course I have not been blogging for the last few days....no wi-fi up in the Scottish mountains!!

What I have been doing, however, is storing up memories to feast on for the next few decades!!

Today I am grateful to all my wonderful family, for making such a huge effort to be with Mum, for her 21st (again) birthday.

I am also grateful to have spent the weekend in the most beautiful place. The scenery took my breath away and left me in awe. The hugeness of the mountains, rather than making me feel small, made me feel that I was a part of something absolutely amazingly wonderful....and I don't just mean my absolutely amazingly wonderful family!!!

It was cold and snowy, but the warmth of the family gathering kept us all toasty....yes, I guess the brandy and beer helped too, but I prefer to attribute the gooey, warm feeling inside my insides to the love of my family for each other! I mean, it was the back end of nowhere - the most beautiful back end I think I've ever seen, mind you - but everybody, including two very pregnant nieces and a sick, poorly nephew, made the effort to come. If that's not pure love, I don't know what is!

And for added, extra, on top of all that wonderfulness....I got to celebrate my birthday with everyone I love too!! Result!

I took nearly 150 photos over the weekend, but I have distilled the essence of the weekend, for me, without putting any people photos up, down to these three pictures.

Hope they make you smile too.

Pure Heaven!

Got to love the hair-do!!

The movable pooch-skin rug!!!

Gratefully yours.
