We had a big fun (busy) weekend enjoying a Reunion with my mother's four siblings and their extended families. It was great to catch up with cousins and aunts and uncles, plus interact with all the kids. We had a large amount of youth ranging from 2 to 20 years old. My uncle recently lost over 50 pounds, my cousin is restoring an environmental nature preserve, my other cousin's family is living with Celiac disease, my sister participated in a triathlon Saturday morning and placed second in her age division, another cousin is on home assignment from their mission work in New Guinea, my aunt told me that two cousins are expecting babies, another aunt shared the differences of living in Singapore, and my parents courageously hosted the picnic.
