My Sisters, A Cousin, and a Family Reunion

This weekend, my family and I drove to Alabama for the Poole family reunion (my mom's father's family). I know, it can get confusing if you think about it too long. Here is a picture of me and my sisters at the reunion...



Here is a picture of my younger sister and me with one of our millions of cousins. I think we are related to just about everyone in the state of Alabama, but this is one that we actually communicate with more than once a decade. His name is Calvin and he's the best cousin in the world! How many single men would let you drag them through Wal-mart at 11:00 PM to buy much needed underwear...sorry, I miscounted. He also let us sleep in his guest bedroom and totally take over the hall bathroom. He's a gem!



I don't have any group pictures from the reunion yet. I have a cousin (one of those that I don't really know) that is a photographer. He took all the group pics, so I don't have them to post. I think there were around 90 people that attended though. Alabama reunions have a way of pulling people out of the woodwork... and did I mention that they bring LOTS of food too! We had a great time seeing everyone. I recommend going to your family reunions...you don't ever know who you might meet.
