Calloway-Cousins-Reunion #2 was a huge success!!

As cousins growing up playing at Grandma-in-the-Woods' house in Verbena, AL, it took over 40 years for us to reconnect. But in 2018, we came from all corners of the US to meet up once again and get to know each other as Senior Citizens (well, most of us).

This past weekend in Orange Beach, AL, we met up for our 2nd Calloway Cousin Reunion. It's crazy how 40-50 years can go by and it's almost like time stopped. I actually know them better NOW than I knew them THEN.

We grabbed my 95-year old Dad and drove back in time on the same roads we used to drive when going from Texas to Alabama visiting Grandma......minus the Stuckey's stops along the way! My sister-cousin Sheri and her husband Doug, along with Uncle Ray (Dad's only living sibling and 91 years old) flew in from different parts of CA....our cousin Rob and his wife Sandra flew their own plane from Nashville....and our cousin Heather and her son Will drove in from the other side of FL....along with our cousin Steve and his beautiful fiancé Diana to all meet up in Orange Beach, AL.

I once heard a quote that said, "Some family trees bear an enormous crop of nuts"....and trust me, our Calloway family tree has its fair share of "nuts". But in our case, the nuts all stayed home and the fruit came to the reunion.

Counting down to Calloway Cousin Reunion #3.....Coming Soon......

(Sorry....not sorry....for the explosion of pictures)
