Once we arrived on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, we had time to reconnect with family that we haven't seen in 4 years. Here are the kids with their cousin who used to come out in the summers when she (and my kids) were much younger. They still hold her as very special due to those old memories. Personally, I just can't believe she's all grown up now and in college!?!
Here is my man with his big brother. These two are such a hoot to listen to when they get together. It's only too bad that neither one of them has a heartfelt opinion about anything. :) (HA!)
Here is the bigger shot of our little party. Aunt Liz came down from Delaware and we all enjoyed some yummy wings (thanks Jo-Ann) and other goodies while we caught up. Unlike back home, the weather was pretty nice and relatively cool all week.
Earlier that morning we made an impromptu stop at an old Mennonite School my man attended for several years. It was going to be a quick stop but we ran into someone he knew and before you know it, the crowd kept growing. Even as an "outsider", it was fun to listen to the stories and connections being remade over those 2 hours.
Another special reunion happened 2 days later when we got to see Mumum & Pupup at their home. At 91 and 98 years old, we weren't sure last time we visited if we would ever get to see them again. As it was, we had a delightful visit and were happy to introduce them to Spiderman for the first time. All of us were glad to connect with them again despite their failing bodies. Isn't this man with his Grandma sweet?
Here are the kids with Pupup. They love to tell anyone who will listen about their Great Grandpa who is almost 100 years old.
