A Great Visit

 My brother-in-law was here over the week-end after a business trip to Savannah, and flew up to visit us for a few days before returning home to California.

 Like my Hubby, he is a hard working, very intelligent guy who does what it takes to provide for his family and give them the best quality of life possible during these hard economic times.

 It had been at least five years since Hubby and his brother had spent quality time together.  Even though they are sixteen years apart in age, and Hubby was in VietNam while his younger brother was barely out of toddler sized clothes, they get along well and both share a love of technology and find more than enough to talk about that they have in common.

Brothers.

Thanks for allowing us to spend time with you and for just being who you are.
We love you!

That sounds like a lovely visit. My oldest brother and I are separated by 14 years, didn't see him a lot while I was growing up, but as adults we connect. Fall is definitely at your house! Ann

Love this post. I'm 7 1/2 years older than my younger brother and 15 years older than my youngest brother and in spite of the age difference we're very close.
And is that sausage gravy???? :)

That's so nice they spent quality time together! Sometimes we take seeing our siblings for granted until something happens to one of them. Case in point, my husbands baby sister's unexpected death this summer. Looks like your brother in law enjoyed himself!~Patti

There's something special about brothers! How nice that you got to take some great photos of the two of them.
(and on a totally different subject, how cool that you got in to hear Clinton speak!)

Awwww, that's nice they had some time together. Seems like there isn't enough time for that these days. Or everyone is too busy to get together.

They are two handsome guys!

Isn't wonderful when everything flows and it is just simply,
A GREAT TIME FOR ALL!

Visits with siblings are so fun. My brother and I are 6 years apart, just enough that when we were young, he was that little brother that was a pain in my you know what...now I so enjoy our visits. Glad your husband and his brother enjoyed their visit.
