Sharing Family Photos


Good Afternoon,
How was your weekend? We had rain, and it is still raining today. No complaints, because we really needed it!
  I didn't know we were having family in again this weekend, but it was nice to see them. My aunt Bernice came in to see mom, and to check on her properties she still has here.  
 She doesn't drive anymore, so her girls drove her in from Texas.  I also got a chance to see more cousin's. I grew up with these cousins...Aunt B's children. The first picture is... 


Aunt Bernice when she was 18 years old. Taken at her parents home...the house is still livable after all this time. She was so young here...


Aunt B stands with her back to the camera, she looked off when the camera flashed...she hates taking pictures; however these are her 2 girls, Shirley on the left, and Betty on the right doing what we do when we get together...cooking! There are 4 sisters and three brothers of them! My Mom has five girls! Wow...


Here is Billy, one of Aunt B's sons with his grand Marcie. He lives in Texas too and drove in to see them since it has been a while. We always have good times together when we all get together. 



My cousin Rhonda sent me some updated pics. Because of her job, she travels and is now in Florida. She is one of my Aunt Dorothy's girls.  


This is Rhonda with her partner, Adam...they have been together for some years....not expecting wedding bells ringing soon... 

Thought I'd share more of my relatives...we are a huge family when we all get together.  Hope you enjoy seeing them.
  I seem to be doing more and busier that ever lately. I'm cooking James some beans-n-rice...today is Monday, so you know what that means...red-beans-and-rice, a custom here in Louisiana!  I won't bother taking pictures, because you've seen my plate of beans. Nothing special.
  I'll be back to visit later...I sure hope you all have a nice and relaxing evening with family. Take good care...

Best Regards, 
Loretta

  2. I enjoyed the pictures of some of your family. Cooking is a great way to share ideas and camaraderie. We took a ride to find some pumpkins, and we did find 3 perfect ones. As soon as it stops raining I will get some pictures to post.
