In the spirit of keeping these posts out of order, I take you back to mid-June. My grandma turned 80 and had a big birthday party which not only celebrated her, but was a reunion of family, some of which I had never met before. Andy and the kids stayed home this trip and I flew with my brother, Jason.

I was so happy to see some cousins I hadn’t seen in 20 years and, like I said, one cousin I had never met. It was a great time of catching up, sharing pictures and memories, honoring my grandma, and of course, singing and dancing. Almost all of my siblings were there, minus the rock star.

Jason and I were the only ones without our kids so we talked all weekend about our plans to live it up, Vegas-style. We followed through by spending one night on the strip which included watching the fountains at the Bellagio, staying up til midnight, and not spending one penny gambling. We were wild.

Jen Hirschman starting writing on this blog that her husband, Andy, started to post pictures of their remodel on their house. That turned into Jen taking the blog over, only to post silly family stories and photos, update family and friends on some happenings, and then abandon it from time to time. Enjoy!
