Our families are big and spread out. We have always spent most of our vacation time visiting family. There are places we have not been because we tend to end up where there is the most family to see and often, the Mississippi branch will meet up with us in Florida or Michigan.
On my side, most have landed in Clifton, Chebanse and Ashkum with a few in Bourbonnais/Kankakee. Only a handful moved away.
It is RARE that the two sides get to mix, except at weddings and funerals. This picture is a real treasure! One the left is my first Cousin Angie and on the right is our Sister-in-Love, Jan... in Florida!!!
Jan runs the Naz Thrift Shop in Winter Haven Florida where she lives, worships, enjoys her family and just married our new Brother-in-Love, Robert. Angie and I were texting this weekend and she mentioned they were in Florida. Florida is a big state, right? Today, I asked her where she was in Florida. When she said Winter Haven, I could not believe it!!!
The friends Jim and Angie were visiting in Florida knew where the shop was and this is the picture I received! Yes, the smile in my heart is huge.
I love it when dots connect!
Today, I am grateful for the smile in my heart.
