we had a fantastic weekend, and we are all ready to go again.  I am so thankful for God's beauty and the friendships made.  I and 1 of the gals have been friends since 1976, one was her sister, another was sis n law and her 3 daughters.   I left home with 2 nieces, 1 nephew, 7 great nephews, 1 great niece, 2 brothers.  I came home with 3 sisters, 3 more nieces, 4 great nieces and 3 more great nephews   Family isn't always blood!
