Congratulations, Raquel & family!
I survived the family reunion. Actually, I enjoyed the hell out of it and marvel at the people I get to call relatives. This crew? Makes insanely incredible kids.
And it looks like I may do it again in August. Another cousin is getting married, according to her parents, who drove 16 hours down to spend a mere 36 hours with us as a complete surprise (they are farmers, it is spring planting.) Of course, last time I tried to make a wedding on the farm, I never got out of town. I may see if my aunt&uncle are willing to drive me from Minneapolis so I can avoid the dreaded O'Hare.
