This is not the best picture by any stretch of the imagination but I wanted you to see how my crazy wonderful family really is. On Saturday, we celebrated my mom’s birthday, and Sean was the only one not there. There are 16 of us in the family and we do everything together. We used to think we were the norm but now we’re realizing, most families don’t celebrate and socialize as much as we do…and that’s ok…we like being a little odd. When it was time to blow out Mom’s candles, we thought we couldn’t have that moment without Sean knowing how much we love him, miss him and are proud of him. My dad quickly made a sign (he loves to make bubble letters!) and snapped our photo. We sent it off to Bachelor world and he responded quickly back that he loved us too, missed us a lot…and plans on picking a winner. I guess only time will tell…
We miss that kid. Our crew of 16 is hoping to expand to 17 when he returns.

Oh.My.Goodness. This post is so full of love. Family is so important in today's world and I am so happy that you all can be together and celebrate each and every occasion together. And yes, Sean, please pick a wonderful girl with a heart like yours. I can think of no one who deserves happiness more than you. Wishing him the best always. Thanks Shay for keeping us in the loop with your sweet family. You are walking, talking sunshine!

U can just feel the excitement very strong with Sean as the bachelor…. so many genuine support from others and the best part is, he is heavily supported in prayers by many Christians…
I think Sean's season is going to be the best ever because God is truly involved.
January, please arrive soon!!

As if your dad couldn't get any more adorable, "he loves to make bubble letters!" That made me smile. How many people can say that about their dads? I am sure it is difficult for Sean to be away from all of you and vice versa. I'm sure also, being around so many happily married couples and their beautiful children just reinforces what he wants for himself. XOXO

I have to say my family is about the same size & we do the same exact thing for celebrations! I LOVE reading your blog to find out what you guys are up to. Can't wait to find out more about Sean's journey too! Have a happy Thursday!! 🙂

Hi Shay! This is Vi from hs. I can't believe i came across your blog while googling the name "sean lowe" because i saw it in my "guilty pleasure celeb gossip rag" and thought, that name sound familiar. It was such a pleasant surprise to find that Sean was your brother. I promise I'm not cyber stalking, it was out of pure curiosity if he was related to the Lowe family from Irving. Lol. It's wonderful to see that your family is still so close. Your kids are beautiful and you look great. Hope all is well and I wish the best of luck to your brother finding his other half.
