Rhode Get Together


My dad's side of the family got together in Clara City on Saturday Oct. 8.  It had been two years since Grandma Bonnie passed away.  It was so nice to see everyone....lots of them I haven't seen since my wedding 1 1/2 years ago and it was the first time alot of them met Aubrey.  If it wasn't for Facebook I would have no clue what any of my family is up to.  Sad it has to be that way.  I really wish I would have taken more pictures that day.  Note to self for next time I guess.

My brother DJ, Aunt Traci & Aubrey


Uncle Greg, Cousin Amy,  Cousin Melanie, Aunt Marilyne & Cousin Kayla

Some of the grandkids and great-grandkids - From the top going clockwise - my nephews Damian & Ethan, brother Nic, nephew Mason, Cousin Kayla with her kids Emily & Alex, me & Aubrey, my cousin Melanie with her kids Evelyn & Lennox, and my cousin Stacy with her kids Riley & Andrew.  If I counted right there were 9 great-grandkids who couldn't be there.  I'm sure Grandma Bonnie was smiling down from Heaven.  She loved her grandkids! 

Grandma Bonnie lived right across the street from the park we were at in Clara City.  I have so many memories of these monkey bars.  I clearly remember one of my cousins (I think either Sarah or Amy) falling off the top chin first.  Try getting an adult inside that thing to help a kid.
