We are back safe and sound with precious memories of time well spent . The smell of autumn was in the air and the colors beginning their metamorphosis . My aunts were gracious hosts and I love them dearly . Listening to my father reminisce of days gone by with his sisters was a delight for me . I learned that just like the movie my Dad and his sisters had neighbors called the Faulkners . Loreena and Thelma Faulkner to be exact . This was a fun conversation by the way and you had to be there . Big Daddy had a night at Rama where he won a 60 dollar jackpot and Martha's blue eyes sparkled with dollar signs . We shopped , we ate , we laughed , we cried, we hugged , we slept in and the best part of all was the joy of spending time with my family . I am so proud to be a small branch on this family tree. May it stay forever rooted in my heart and the hearts of my children.
Go hug your tree today .
Three Guys and a Stove ...not us ...( the name of the great eatery in Huntsville .)
The Orillia aunt and crew .
My aunt realizes that when you have over 1000 unopened emails that you cannot receive any more .
Cousin Jeff becomes *Always Fresh * .
A family meal at Tall Trees in Huntsville . The pickerel was deeelish .
The Huntsville aunt and crew .....have no idea why our butts are in the air.
..and yes there is a jacuzzi story behind the photo ..let's just call it Big Daddy and the vino .
Cheers to a great trip!

Yea... it's something I've just recently (re)discovered myself. Family is pretty great... Sure there's always a few nuts in the tree, but overall it's a great bunch that I have, and it seems so do you.
Glad you had a great trip.
And even more glad you're back!!!
Welcome home Ma!
A plenitude of nuts makes the tree so much more fun .... as they say the apple (or the nut ) does not not fall far from the tree .
So, do Gramps's big sisters approve of the new woman in his life? Sisters can be so judgmental, you know.
I'm glad you're back, too. We missed ya.
They absolutely without a doubt loved her ...and thanks Bobbycakes and Kittycakes for missin' moi .
