A family affair-December 3rd

Today was the day of my big fat family holiday party. We are not greek so I could not add that to the title!! This a huge day in my family and to be totally honest---I love this day. I honestly adore all of my family members. They are been an inspiration to me. My family has struggled with many different events but the one that has always captured me is my cousin Bryan. Bryan has a story that could be featured on any show. My cousins Bryan's parents were married YOUNG--so young that their parents had to sign permission and sign them into a hotel on the night of their honeymoon. They were already expecting a child. They gave birth and welcomed an amazing son into the world. They soon became pregnant again once they settled down into life. They were older but STILL YOUNG( gives a hint to how young they were the first time). Well Bryan was born to these two parents and things were good until at a young age Bryan took a tragic fall down a flight of stairs in his walker. Many lives were changed that night --I was only 14 and my life was changed. I saw his parents come together and work together to help their son survive. They now live with Bryan who is 20 years old but has no ability to communicate--walk--eat orally--toliet himself. AND..they are HAPPY and Amazing couple. They were just married 25 years in 08--Debbie finally had a bridal shower. They had a Hawaiin trip planned and a major home repair swallowed the money and they could not go but again..they are HAPPY. They are positive people who grew up together but are still like newlyweds. They were blessed with another son after Bryan who like their oldest are wonderful young men. So my picutre post is my big-Fat-Family Fhoto..but I would love you to look to the right and see Bryan. And the smile on his dad's face...just happy. His Mom is right behind him with dark hair.

Sorry if I rambled...I love these people.
