Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
We called this bunch the Magnificent Seven before Hope was born. It would be another few years before she appeared and they became The Great Eight:) These pictures are oldies but goodies.
Too cute! I have seven, but mine are more spread out than yours, I think. There's more than 12 years from youngest to oldest of my grandkids. Yours look much closer. Must make for interesting family gatherings!
Back Row: My son's oldest, Me, Ron's daughter's oldest, Ron Cliff -- Front Row: my daughter's oldest, my son's youngest, Ron's daughter's youngest, my son's middle child, Ron's daughter's middle child.
Four in college now, Three in high school (sophomore, junior, senior). Of course Hope (not shown) is in grade school.
Dani -- A good looking bunch of rag-a-muffins. They had been having some hard play time including running through the sprinkler.
Talon -- They are all such good friends though the California bunch can't get together with us as much as the others.
Chatty Crone -- Oops, be careful what you ask for. I can really get going with pictures of our mob.
Debbie -- Truly magnificent and great
Susan Adcox -- The seven are close but poor Hope (not pictured because not born yet) is stuck out on the end by herself. She is 7 years younger than the youngest.
Riot Kitty -- Sorry -- there is a lot of hope just no Hope.
I'm going to need (and want) more details about who everyone is. Not names but ...you know.
