The Lonely Pup

July 14, 2013- Harrington took a liken to Cousin Emmanuel's puppy. This little darling was it Mom's when arrived, tied to a tree and he was there when we left.. Emmanuel apparently forgot to take him home.  " Sure He did". Harrington  got a chance to drive cousin Shaun's classic(new bottom photos)

Family Gathering July 2013

A couple of  photos from the Goree Family Reunion this summer. As always its great to see and spend time with the family.  Five of  my mother's living seven siblings were in attendance along with some of their children and their families. Mom and Aunt Sammie were the only two siblings to have all of their children in attendance. Amelia and I with some assistance from Daddy barbecued the ribs and they were the BOMB! Thanks to our resident BBQ-er. Dad says its all in the smoke. My Daddy put some pecan wood on the grill and white clouds of smoke bellowing from that smoke stack resembled a fright train (LOL!) My brothers were in charge of the fish fry. Sorry to say bros, it was ah right! It definitely wasn't their best. They didn't have access to the large fryer they used two years ago.

My brothers surprised my sister and I by inviting  our first cousin on my dad's side of the family to the cookout on Saturday. It has been many years since we have spent quality time with cousin Deborah. What a time we had chatting, eating,rehashing old memories and creating new memories.
There's nothing like FAMILY ....Good, Bad, or Indifferent. We are still family  & There's Nothing We Can Do About  IT!
