It didn't take but a few hours for whatever blew up my nose to start bothering me. I was allergy sick. Then the Hubs followed suit, then Bean and now dear daughter. We all have it and we all feel miserable but, as they say, the show must go on.
This weekend was a bit hectic. My mother in law will be celebrating her 94th birthday on Wednesday so this weekend we had a reunion of sorts. She has four children, all still living, four in-law children, eleven grandchildren, and 12 great-grandchildren. All but a few came for this little reunion.
We had a lovely dinner at Cousin's Barbecue on Saturday night followed by cake in the activity center at her retirement community. Yesterday, most reconvened to have lunch -- fajitas from Rosa's -- and more fellowship. It was a good time and I think she enjoyed it.
Three of her granddaughters were captured in this lovely photo
Jan, Bri and Jill |
Rachel, Sarah and Rebecca |
And, some of the younger generation --
Mateo, Bean and Dante |
It was a good day -- hopefully there will be a repeat next year.

Lovely photos. Glad everybody got to visit.
I am very sorry you haven't been feeling well. Yeah, gotta stay inside, this time of year. Michael keeps saying we should head for Key West for the winter, but they can have hurricanes down there just about any time of year. So maybe Tuscany?
No, don't go to Tuscany. Don't go anywhere like foreign countries, foreign states, apparently cafe's. HEB -- you can only go to HEB when it isn't crowded. Ok, you can never go to HEB. Can you tell I am not liking all the current events?
A 94th birthday is to be celebrated with much joy--and it sounds as if it was! Isn't it great that even if some can't attend they can post a picture to be part of the day.
Lovely photos of the family!
Hope you're on the other side of these pesky allergies and everyone's health has improved.

Thanks, Bonnie! Yes, I think everybody had a wonderful time -- especially the little kids -- after all, there was cake! Actually, we are right in the middle of the allergy situation but I seem to be holding my own. The husband, however, not so much -- keeping him drugged up on allergy meds so hopefully it will be short-lived.
