As my Gram (Grammie Rowe's daughter) passed away just the month before this year's reunion, and her sister a couple of months before that, we spent a lot of time reminiscing. My Gram loved to dance when she was younger and she and her sister danced the Charleston at a celebration one summer when Gram was about 60 (I thought she was old then, but that was over 30 years ago!). Well, the week before Gram passed, Sage serendipitously learned the Charleston at her dance studio. Just before the reunion, she taught her cousins, Sara and Jenna, how to dance it, and they all danced, along w/my mom at the reunion (that's them resting in the photo just above on the right).
And Chase enjoyed playing croquet with the boys, cousins Nicholas, Dominic, and Matthew. I think they just hit the balls and not each other with the mallets....
The other two photos are cousins, Jenna, Sara, Jackson, Peg, Diane and my mom and then a photo of my Mom, Dad, my mom's sister, Aunt Carolyn, and my mom's brother and wife, Uncle Leon and Aunt Betty. They realized they are now the older generation at the reunion, something I don't think they liked very much... Of course, that moved Mike and I up to the middle-aged generation, which I know I don't like at all!
