The picnic happened, and it was AMAZING!!





If I hadn't been trying so hard to keep up with everyone who was arriving(by shaking hands introducing) I would had been crying.

We recreated a picnic from nearly 75 years ago.

I am pleased and because of the great turn out, I'm doing it again next year. I hope this became a wake up call for many,
"please keep in touch with your family, it is your roots"

these are the original from 1935 still living.










All of us

How nice to have such a big family so nearby!

yes, but the amazing thing mimi is I had no idea I had so much family until this event, and most are not close relatives(3rd-4th-5th-6th cousins) It was truly beautiful, and amazing.
