Family Reunion!

WE went to a family reunion on Sunday in Roland Oklahoma! Its where all my moms cousin are from and my grandpa mom was one of 10 kids where her dad lived to 104 years old so we have always gone to the reunion in may which was when his birthday was. My family haven't been in 2 years that reunion was actually the last time i saw my dad. we all went to the Reunion and then we left that night to head back to Edmond and then Thursday morning he was killed! This was a bitter sweet trip for me but once we got there i was struck by how grateful I'm that i know where i come from on both sides of my family how lucky that i know who my ancestors are i know who I'm because i know where i come from! something that my grandparents have taught me that you cant know where your going if you don't know where i you come from! I pray and hope that i can teach my kids this also! the pics are of my mom and her sisters and her dad and the ones that are left of the 10 kids and there children and the children children and gradkids and in laws!
