TN FAMILY REUNION

J and I got home last night from his family reunion.  It was a whirlwind of a weekend.  We flew up to Nashville late Friday evening, the reunion was all day Saturday, and then we flew home Sunday.  I don't know if anyone did an official count so just guessing I would say 45 people attended the reunion.  There were people there from Wisconsin, Ohio, West Virginia, South Carolina, Louisiana (us!), and of course Tennessee.  I was introduced to lots of people I had never met before.  Actually, J even met lots of new family.  Third cousins and such.  J's parents organized the event and hosted everyone at their house.  Their large backyard with a resort like swimming pool is always the perfect party spot.  They did a fantastic job welcoming everyone into their home and handling the large crowd.  Can you imagine cooking ribs over a hot grill in the summer heat for that many people?!  Now that's love.  Way to go Mr. Terry and Mrs. Lynette!
