We drove out to Conewango Valley to reunite with my mom's side of the family. More specifically, the great grandparents descendants... meaning, lots and lots of people I really don't know that well :)
Family reunions are (usually) a good time, and this one definitely was. It was good to sit and talk with some of my cousins I haven't seen or talked to since the last family reunion a couple years ago.
This is in fact one of my nieces, Halo. A couple of the younger cousins ran her around the perimeter of the enormous property my uncle (or maybe he's my cousin?) owns. Probably about 2 miles after the second lap... she was kinda pooped.
I so wish I could find tractors like "big al" for some shoots. Seriously, how cool would that be?
We did a lot of this, and also a new game called nuke em, which I liked a lot.
Then yesterday, we had my dad's side of the family at our house for another get-together... we had so much fun seeing everyone and playing tether-ball, nuke em and a little volleyball. Also, they played, let's make sure Aunt Amanda gets thrown in the pool with all her clothes on...
But back to Saturday, this is a picture of my generation. And hey guess what? I'm the youngest! yayayaya! Well if dan had been there, he would have been... but I'll take what I can get :)
We have one of those huge crazy descendants of somebody 4 generations (from us) reunions with the husband's mom's side of the family. I've been going with him since we were dating for 1 month, literally, our one month dating anniversary was at her reunion! It's been 5 years of annual reunions and I still don't know half of them or how they're related to us!
