Coastline
Since 1978, a large extended family has been gathering here at the beach to make life long memories. Weekends and holidays have been filled with days of bonding and relaxation. This area has become a home away from home and the family has always been able to count on huge home cooked meals, hours and hours of card games, and a good gin and tonic to enjoy as the sun sets over the ocean. The family beach house has welcomed new husbands and wives along the way, as well as lots of beloved grandchildren. This family is not only large in number but also extremely large in love and generosity. As the great grand children started to arrive, other homes were bought in the small ocean cove. Soon, this area became more than just a small community. It became a community of extended family who continue to work very hard to keep tradition alive and family bonds tight.
This weekend, we were invited to the beach to join the family in their traditions. We admired the gorgeous views.....gathered at a neighboring home for quality time with aunts, uncles, cousins, and their friends......enjoyed a stroll through town looking at all of the Christmas decorations and brightly lit buildings.......walked down the trail to watch the waves roll in from the ocean......and gathered at the family table for meals and lively conversation. Memories were made and relationships were strengthened. We have been close friends with this family for many years. This family has become a part of us.....a support system in our lives that contribute to our living a balanced and fulfilling life.
I would like to thank these wonderful families for always welcoming us with open arms. Thank you for introducing us to your cherished home away from home over the years and thank you for your love, your generosity and your trust. We can always count on a good laugh with you.....
"In the words of Bobby Brown....peace...love....and...... tenderonious!"
