Sometimes you love being together with your family, and sometimes you feel ready for a break from family!  Whether you want to be with your family all the time or like to have breathing space, the people and pets you call family are probably the most important part of your life.  Your family introduces you to the world, teaches values, and influences how we see ourselves being part of the world.  A supportive family is a blessing and helps us learn about love, helps us make decisions, helps us develop good habits, and helps keep us safe.  How has your family influenced your life?

We are sharing summer snapshots of our family members. Take time to remember special times with family and take time to make new memories!
