Family

Tomorrow we will have probably somewhere around 50 people descend on our house, and they will stay pretty much all day. They will all be either my Mother's brother or sisters, their kids, or grandkids. Yep, we will all have some of their blood running thru us. My Grandma died unexpectedly.

One of my Aunts was determined that we have a theme, so we are doing the Olympics, but with our style of games. Water baloons, bocci ball, croquet, badmitton, volleyball, but we have medals all made up and prizes too. We also have Family Fued, and other games. It should be tons of fun and an event to remember.

We have been bringing out pictures by the hundreds, marking your initials on the back, so you hopefully will get them back. It is sad looking through some of the pics of family who has gone on to Heaven. And others who have had a rough life and now look so much older than their actual years. Sad stuff.

But there are also dozens of hilarious pics. Our family is crazy, and someone is always joking or playing a joke on someone else, like sticking bananas in their ears. Or people cramming in to a perfectly good photo right before the flash goes off. And more Christmas photos than you can count and can only distinguish by the fact that different clothes are on each picture, or the grandkids are a certain age.

I am sure that by tomorrow evening and Sunday we will all be worn out, probably a little sunburned, but with lots more pictures and even more memories. It should be a fun day, but I am going to bed early tonight to rest up before they all descend on our house. I will love every minute!!!!
