It was not easy for Gasperini-Ville to bid my family farewell yesterday. Tears were shed by children and adults, alike. I always try to hold it in when saying goodbye, but yesterday little J was to blame for getting the tearfest started. It was as if he had an innate sense they were leaving and began saying his sorrowful goodbyes long before...
J and Pap, an hour before the departure
By the time the gang was walking out the door, little J was a mess... and so was his mama (and aunt and Gramz!!) When one of us cries, everyone joins in. We're a compassionate bunch like that! ;)
Gasperini-Ville is a lot quieter today (hard to believe with our boisterous crew) and life continues at a more simple pace. We are surely eager for Sept./Oct. when we'll get to meet up again for fall festivities--soccer games, a family wedding, etc. Should be wonderful! Thank you to my family for a grand visit...
Here are a few more pics from our time together:
Gramz, Pappy, and the wee babe
My sis and our crew! She has twin boys in 1st grade this year so we didn't completely overwhelm her. Missed you A and A!
Sis J and MG--first recorded smile! We've been seeing them for the last week, but have never captured one... until now!
Beautiful girls!
Love to all,

We miss you! Thanks for the memories!!
Everyone looks so great! How is it that your sister never ages? Seriously, she looks exactly the same as when I saw her 6-7 years ago. You W gals must have great genes. How I wish I could have seen your family, I miss them so much!
