I have been waiting until I have time to put into this post but, it doesn't look like I have any in the near future! I do not thing I can give this event justice with my blog or my words but, I will say it was one of my most memorable and best events of 2008! I had a grand time and tear up just thinking about how wonderful it was to be with my dear family for a few days! Beware of too much bragging....I am so so proud of this crew!
The picture below is my grandmother and her 5 children. These 6 people have influenced me and loved me more than anyone else on earth(my dad goes in there too)! 
Here are my cousins! They too are very special to me. We all live very far apart but, there is this understood bond that we all have and a love for each other that not many people understand. There is no personal space....does that make sense? 
We all came together again since my wedding for Grandmother Georgia's 90th birthday party. It was a fabulous time. Grandmother looked great and everyone was ready to celebrate family!
Sherry and Jilly taught Harry how to play the Wii...he loved it!
Samia and Harry could not get enough of each other! They played and played and played! Samia sure was wanting to take Harry home with her! I am in high hopes we will get to visit again soon! We love our Samia!
These are my cousins, Sherry and Jamie! They are sisters and live in CA. I have always thought they were so cool and wanted to be just like them. I contact Jamie about mother issues all the time, I respect their opinion so much! They have always been so good to me, I remember getting Christmas cards from them in college with cash inside!
The boys and Grandmother watching sports!
Here the 5 are again! I joke about how they all would each send me money and
gifts in college but, none of them knew the other one was doing it! They have been so supportive of me my entire life. I keep up with them very well considering they are so far away! I love them to death! Mom is at the end, she doesn't count when I talk about the aunts and uncles..I am sure that makes sense!
The picture below shows so much emotion and a huge story to me. Joyce Anderson is my grandmothers best friend and neighbor for well over 50 years. I remember her house and husband so well when I was small. A story she is telling Uncle Joe here is about how she would come over to Grandmother's house late at night with Joe was a baby and rock him. He had colic and she would rock in in a wood chair(not rocker) because Granddad was gone and Grandmother was working so hard. She is the staple of a good friend! We all hold her close to our hearts. I also have to say I grew up with her children coming to grandmother's house every Christmas Eve to sing carols to us! It was a very special part of our Christmas!
Samia was great entertainment at Grandmother's party! She is so talented! She can sing beautifully!
Here is Harry and Tesa!
Harry and Caroline playing outside in the well(look at Caroline and that pail)!
We tried really hard to get a picture of the 4 great grandchildren!
The rent cars are a lovely background, don't you think?!
Here is Harry and Uncle Nick(Joyce's husband)! I call him Uncle Teddy Bear! He is the softest most gentle man! He may be the smartest man I know too, he works with NASA!
Jill and Jordan with Jordan's girlfriend, Emily! We loved them all, I will say they play Scrabble like pros, it isn't even fun to play with their vocabulary...too smart for me!

The party was so fun because we were all there to celebrate Grandmother! Everyone knows that she is one of the most amazing women on the planet! If you met her, you would understand! She has influenced our entire family to have a love and bond with each and a love for learning. She is our glue and we can not love her enough!
