It has only been two days, but......

I miss my family! They were ALL just here on Saturday, but already the house is too quiet. There is lots of food left over. That wonderful cake that barely got touched is still here and I can enjoy it as breakfast.

I wonder when we will all get together, and hope it will be for a happy occaision. It was fun the other day trying to ID the younger ones, who had all grown up. Some were more difficult than others. Some looked so much like their parents, it was easy. Some that we do not see as much, were only ID'd because of who they came in with.

All total, we went through all the hotdogs that were brought (at least 40), Dad said somewhere around 60 hamburgers, and about 30 BBQ Chicken legs. I have not yet stopped to count how many people were here. But we estimated that to get a group shot would have to involve a ladder. That is alot of relatives all in one spot.

It was a great day and one I hope that we do not have to wait until next year to repeat.
