Okay, it is Saturday Nov 27, 2010 and I do not know where the time has gone since I last updated this Blog. I do however know that Larry and I both have had a great time but are TIRED.
We arrived in Bainbridge on tuesday the 16th of November and started running the minute we got the "bus" parked.
Carolyn (cousin) and I started off that afternoon by going to buy some pecans for us to take back to Virginia with us. Several other errands, some of which were to pickup wedding gifts for Keith and LeeAnn.
Wednesday found us getting ready to decorate for the rehersal dinner on Friday night. Carolyn had done a fine job of getting everything together plus lots of people to help us. We worked hard on wednesday, thursday and friday getting everything done. It was a huge success. By the way I actually stayed up until 1 am helping get everything cleaned up.
Saturday (11-20-20) was the big day . The wedding was at 6 pm. Everything went according to plan and it was BEAUTIFUL. Off to the reception at the Kirbo Center along with Ally and Doug who had arrived that afternoon.
It was 1:30 am when I got to bed this time.
Sunday we went to a brunch at the Holiday Inn and were surprised to see Margaret Farnell Hill, who is also a cousin of mine, whom we had not seen in several years.
After that Ally wanted to go to the cementery and just ride around the area , since she had not been here in several years.
Back to Carolyn and Keiths house to visit with lots more family and during the course of the evening we found out that Ally is pregnant. She and Doug are excited about becoming parents again in June. This will be our 6th grandchild.
Next we planned for Thanksgiving and of course we had plenty of food.
Yesterday, friday, we all CRASHED. I think everything has either been put away, returned or whatever.
Today, Larry, Carolyn and I went to Climax, Georgia to Swine Time. Now don't ask why they call it that but it was fun., Just lots of people, crafts, food, etc. Two main things, syrup cooking and cooked chittlens. Now I have never eaten chittlens and don't think I will ever eat them.
Now we are waiting for Larry and MaryJane Phillips, our friends from Texas to come over to visit. They are in Thomasville, Ga. visiting relatives.
We plan to leave on Monday morning heading back to Virginia with a stop in Greer SC with to see Bill and Deb Dorris again.
