As you may or may not be aware, we have some relatives here in Nebraska that most of you have never seen. They are third cousins, fourth cousins and other cousins that fall further afield than that. My dad (and, one would assume, Aunt Cleo) can tell you just how they are related.
At any rate, they have invited you to their annual family reunion, which they have been holding for a very long time. I’ve been to a couple of them with my folks, and they say Grandma came up way back when.
I can tell you that they are some of the nicest people you’d ever want to meet, and they sure can cook. Here are the details:

If you’re interested in coming, let me know and I’ll pass the information on. I’m pretty sure that between Lauren & I and Sam & Rachel we could put you up for the night as well. Here’s proof of the cooking bit:

I believe that Mother went out to Nebr to the family reunion with Pearl Carrender one year. I am sure they all remember Pearl. she went to that reunion often if I remember right.
Aunt Lolly says
Wouldn’t it be fun to go there once? We could rent a large van, and Vernon, Margie, Bea,cleo, Mahlon, Marylynn,Naomi and Louie Lloyd and Jane, and Ralph and I all go to that reunion together, We could take or time. and just hang out together. rent some rooms, and share the cost of the van and gas! Nice to think about!.
Aunt Lolly says
That plate of food makes my mouth water Lloyd.
Lloyd Jr. says
This is Lauren’s plate,. I’m pretty sure that mine had a lot more meat on it.
