TSS - What I Did on my Summer Vacation

Ate - a lot! Lots of wonderful food, prepared by lots of family members. Even sushi!








































Ancestor Tour - spent time with my Grandpa, and later my Dad, visiting the places my ancestors grew up, and where they are now buried.


























Sang - any time someone asks where my musical talents come from, I cite my family. This is what we do when we get together - Grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins all singing together.






Babysat - for the cutest little niece on the planet! She discovered sand for the first time, and likes it.






























Bought books!! Notice I didn't say READ books - I was too busy! But all in all, my family bought 30+ books this week - this is my cousin, Mark, with his haul. "We are a reading family."























It was a very busy, very fun week - I love my family! I already can't wait for next year!!

  1. Sounds like you all need to pack an extra suitcase just to get the books home from vacation. I am the same way!

Boo for spambots! Yay for real commenters! Too many of the former is making me crack down, but if you are one of the latter, I'd love to know what you have to say!
