Well it has come and gone, another Charlie and Edith Smith Family Reunion at Turner Falls. This annual event always seem to spring up on me Now that's i'm older with a family of my own. But i'm sure in a few more years Sidney and Elizabeth will keep my remembering it just as i did once upon a time.I can't believe this was our 11th year out there. It doesn't seem like it but wow!!
Thank goodness we, all but Ty, were able to go this year. We had a blast! I actually knew almost everyone there, except 3 people out of the 54(ish) that's like 95%. Although we were missing my Parents, Kat, Uncle Alan and his family, and all of the Whitney's. We missed All of you!!!
Well The weekend started off with a Blonde Moment, which you may not be too surprised at. I left my Bag at home, my clothes, bath stuff, electronic, sheets, and some towels were all left on my bed at home. Somehow i thought i had put them in the trunk but i hadn't, that's me. I had everything else and a good reason to shop. I did keep myself reeled in by only7 buying a few shirts and shorts and whatnot. I did got by 1/2 Price Books, who can blame me, right? And I got the Neatest Book! a Wall Chart of World History, all 6,000 years of human history, is that COOL or what! (I'm such a nerd!)
Sidney really enjoyed the lake: fishing and canoeing. Thank you Charlie and Sallie for going out and watching him when i had Sissy to look after. I came home really wanting to go camping with Sid and Ty, hopefully we will have time.
Elizabeth like exploring the cabin and as much of outside as she could. A inflatable pool was brought for Sissy and Shawn-Shawn (my 2nd cousin). He was so cute with sissy, hugging on her and kissing through his passy. Too Cute!
My nephew and niece even got to go, it was their first time. We are so blessed that they could come, i know my brother Charlie loved it. I could believe how much they have grow, C-4 is 10 and Sabina 8, time sure does fly by. But then Everyone seems to have grown up Jordan and Shyanne especially, but then i baby sat them, once....
I didn't notice how much i miss them until now.
Well I was suppose to Study for my State History Teaching Exam, or work on my Independent Study Class on Henry VIII or Mary Tudor....but naturally that went out the window
