This weekend I left on Friday with my parents to go to Arkansas for our annual family reunions. One for my moms side, and one for my dads. We go up every year in June to Hot Springs, and stay at Oak Bower camp ground on Lake Degray. It is absolutely beautiful and one of my favorite places to be. There are so many memories there. We have been doing this for 34 years now...basically since I was born. What an incredible tradition my grandfather and his 8 bothers and sisters started all those years ago...here are a few pictures from Saturday with my moms family..
My sweet precious great niece Caydence
2 of my 3 great aunts that are still with us, and who help start this great tradition
Then on Sunday after we left my moms, we went to a different area on Lake Degray to meet up with my dads family to spend a few hours with them. He is the baby of 7 kids, but sadly he only has 2 siblings left. I love them all so very much...
My Uncle Wayne, Aunt Mattie Fay, and my Daddy.. :)
My brother, sis-in-law, nephews Gabriel and Devan (LOVE these boys)
My dads niece, her mom was his oldest sister, and her family
And my Aunt Annie, her husband was my dads brother, he passed away last year
We had such a great weekend. It is a super fast trip, but worth the drive and the busyness of it all. Thanks for sticking with me...I'm gonna try to do better...!!!
Love, Mandy
