[edited to delete photo b/c of fear of family photos being on Internet]
This was taken in December of 2004 at the wedding of Aron’s sister, the last of the 5 kids to get married.
I was hesitant to post this photo and post because of the circumstances of the wedding, but my intentions are only good because I do love this family. I won’t name names because some people are Blog Sensitive and are afraid of being stalked.
Three of us were pregnant in this picture: me (7 months along with Callie), the bride (6 months along) and my red-headed sister-in-law (3 months along). My in-laws got 3 new grandbabies in only a few month’s time in 2005.
Aron just had hernia surgery the day before and was in a lot of pain. He’s the one who looks like he’s going to puke. Girls, you don't know love til you've nursed your man through hernia surgery while pregnant.
I love Aron’s family because it includes many nationalities and colors. I hate the term African American unless someone is from Africa, so I’ll just say my brother-in-law is black; my sister-in-law is Korean; her 4 kids are all mixed (and gorgeous and smart). We have German and Irish and Swedish in this family, that I know of. We are the Melting Pot Family.
I’m proud of the McLoughlins and am proud to be one.

ReplyDeleteI remember this picture. Did you post this entry before? I can't find it but it looks and reads familiar. Am I just smoking crack again?
ReplyDeleteThere is an eHow thing that pops up every time I visit and covers half of your most recent post. I'm not sure if it's a widget you put on there or not, but I can't read anything (or actually, just half of it). Weird.
ReplyDeletePete and Repeat were sitting on a fence. Pete fell off. Who was left?
ReplyDeleteI feel ripped off at the rerun! Where's the petition I can sign to get you internet access at home?!
She still doesn't have internet access at home. Aron in my cousin - I will ring him at the neck. Easy for him to say no internet when he is gone 40+ hours a week!
