Family

Tonight I'm typing to you from my old bedroom at my parents house.  It's so nice to have such wonderful parents that are willing to take care of you 24 hours a day until you feel better.  Sean came down last night and today to keep me company but had to go back to work on the Circle T.

Right now I'm watching  The Lindsey Lohan version of The Parent Trap..(ya know before she was a crackhoe)  and am so nauseous that I really wish I would've kept on the little motion sickness patch they told me to keep on...and they pumped me so full of air during surgery that I think if the computer wasn't in my lap I would float up to the ceiling.   .... I may or may not be a little loopy from pain medication...Now that I re-read that paragraph I'm leaning towards the "may" side...

So before I left for the hospital I took some pictures of my Christmas tree and some of my favorite ornaments.  I was planning on doing a Christmas post about it but I have mysteriously lost my pictures....how do you loose pictures on a digital camera??  I still have the card, the pictures are just MIA... hm??

SOOO instead of Christmas ornament pictures you get to hear all about my Family Reunion we had last weekend.

We had my Dad's Dad's side of the family over to our barn for a family reunion. Dad has a nice barn with living quarters, you can kind of see it in the background of the photo...so don't like think we had a family reunion down in the ol' hay barn and square danced or something..we aren't that backwards.  ...anyways.   There were about 55 of us, the youngest in attendance was 1 year old and the oldest was my Great Grandmother Gladys at 96 years young.  (She's the little one on the couch)  She is still in good health and great mental health as well.  She was over heard saying at one point during the day, 'Well I guess I started all of this mess.'  And she did, six children multiplied into over 55 people!!

 Left to right, Susie (My aunt), Erin, Kinley, Great Grandma, and MawMaw

Kinley was the only Great Great Grandchild there and they took a 5 generation photo.  My Grandfather Passed away in 2003 so we substituted his generation with my MawMaw (His wife)  So even though it's not Blood 5 generations  It's pretty dang close!



Oh and I'd just like to give a special Shout Out to my Aunt Sherree who is a very dedicated Blog Reader!!  I just wanted to say hello and let you know how wonderful it was to see you!!  Now.... I'd like to zoom in on our family photo and we can all laugh "with" Aunt Sherree and her attempt to get Kinley to Smile...apparently K wasn't having it...  This photo made me smile because it shows Aunt Sherree's personality, Happy and uplifting No Matter what!!! Love you and See you at Christmas!!



Have a Great Day everyone!  Maybe you'll get to see my tree tomorrow...if I find those photos...
