Family Reunion 2011

     Well this year the Hopkins/Cannon family had a reunion in Orlando, Florida that, after about eight year, was much needed and greatly enjoyed by everyone that attended.

Friends, family and all in between came out to enjoy the three day event that I think will be talked about for years to come. I think the best part about it all is seeing everyone that's still here and remembering all those that aren't, while celebrating the memory of both. It's rare that a family can come together in total harmony and just enjoy each other;s company.

There was no fighting at all, and most of all my grandmother of 70+, go to see her whole family together in one place. Another thing that was very warming about the whole thing is the was that my other half was welcomed into the family like he had been apart of it from the beginning. My family's not perfect but it's mine and I love them all the same. And one this that I do know if I don't know anything else is that they love me and support me in everything that I do. I give special thanks to no one person because they all made the whole event a huge success.

There were lots of pictures taken but I don't think we really got any of the pictures from when we were all at the pool. A million kids a few adults and tons of water. Nothing gets better than that.

Bowling night was a huge success even though I left early. And I think my favorite part of the whole week end was the first night that we arrived when we all played cards and sat around talkin trash. Or maybe it was all the events that followed the bowling alley. I really don't know I just had lots of fun. All in all I really enjoyed myself and can't wait till the next one.
