Aunt Ginny with my beloved Terminator Boy, Andy |
We lost Andy two years before that. This is my favorite picture of them and one of my favorite photos period. The contrast in body types always cracked me up.
I'll continue to celebrate the days leading up to the parade, but my life is so much emptier without them.
This got a little sad, but these were two of the funniest (Andy by intention) people I knew.

This photo is a great tribute to them, Jeanna! Am glad you share this with All Seasons as a memory of your beloved family members:) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love this photo and remember the day I took it, J. Thanks for hanging in there with me and stopping by. Hope you have a sunny and creative weekend.
DeleteIt is wonderful to have people that you have good memories with or that fill your mind with joy when you think of them. I was not around any aunts or uncles enough to feel close to them. But do/did have my husband's aunts and uncles...and his grammy.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, we lost Andy way WAY too soon and not a day goes by when I'm not thinking of him as well as Aunt Ginny who I also don't believe is gone, even at that age. I actually have a quilt made from Andy's t-shirts next to me now. That's too bad you didn't grow up with aunts and uncles but it's nice you have your hubby's plus who doesn't need a grammy (:
DeleteThey will keep your St. Paddy's Day spirit alive. It's hard to believe that March is almost here though.
ReplyDeleteThey will, Brian, especially Aunt Ginny's who was the heart of the Irish side of the family. I can't believe it either but welcome it whole heartedly.
DeleteWhat a lovely way to remember them! They look so happy.
ReplyDeleteIt was a good day, DS.
DeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie.
DeleteA wonderful memory, beautiful and so intimate to both of you in the photo!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Elkes, pretty much all good memories.
DeleteWonderful that you had the pleasure of these people in your life. Nothing like being Irish :) Thanks for linking up and have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle, they were both unique and very special. Ah yes, I just ordered a t-shirt that says,
Delete"Everyone Is A Little Irish On St. Patrick's Day
Except The Itialians
We're Still Italians"
But I'm Irish as well.
You too!
Your aunt looks like she was so full of life! Nice picture of two people you miss ♥️
ReplyDeleteShe was more full of life than anyone, and I mean ANYone I ever knew.
DeleteHello, A lovely memory of your Aunt Ginny and Andy! Nice photos! I am looking forward to St. Patrick's Day! Happy Sunday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen, the birds are chirping and sound as anxious for spring as we are. It's a sunny day that's supposed to be in the mid-40s, so it's going to be a lovely day, hope your Sunday is just as good or better.
DeleteIt is hard but remembering them keeps them with you. xx
ReplyDeleteMy condolences about your beautiful Aunt. Her smile just makes you so happy! Also, it's a great post you have here also. Great pics put a smile on my face for sure. Thanks for sharing & have a great day!
