The Cardin Family Reunion Weekend...

The Cardin Family Reunion...need I say more?!
We had lots and lots of fun...tons of laughs and lots of strolls down memory lane!  We love spending the weeked every year in cabins doing absolutely nothing except for eating and talking...two things us Cardins do well!  This is the one time a year when all of our kids get to play and run wild...no naps, no bedtime, no certain meal time...just acting like the little devils they can be!!  I would load more pictures but it takes to stinkin' long and unfortunately I have a lot of things to do and not a whole lot of time. 

I loaded this picture because Aunt Veta, Aunt Thelma, and Aunt Betty are the only three remaining children of Harvey (my great grandaddy) and Myrtle (my great grandmother).  These are the three that keep this tradition going.  What a wonderful weekend it turned out to be...unfortunately, it ended on a not so good note.  Tiffany (daughter of Donnie and Anita Cardin) is in really bad shape.  She is needing a kidney transplant really bad...we are not sure how she is still surviving, to be perfectly honest.  Please if you read this pray for her so that maybe next year she will be able to enjoy the reunion and watch her little boy run wild with all of our kids...

On a break....

...at school! 

The last two weeks has been pretty busy!!  I have worked from 5am until about 5 or 6pm.  I am also in school for four hours every Thursday night.  Plus I went to visit one of my favorite cousins, Kyle and Amy on Monday night after work.  I got home at midnight and very minimal sleep for work on Tuesday.  It was super fun, though, just goofing off with them, my sisters, my mom, Aunt Sheila, Uncle Herbie, and Debra.  On top of that I am still a mother...so needless to say I am so super tired.  I am sitting in a pretty boring class going over the basics to Microsoft Word.  Luckily, I only have to go into work for about 2 hours tomorrow and then I am done for the weekend!  Yeaaaa!!!

On another note, my little girl is getting way to big for her britches!!  She has got a very BIG attitude for those very small britches and she is about to wear me out. 

But the fun starts tomorrow....the Cardin reunion!!  If you are brave feel free to join us at Rock Island Park.  We will be up late laughing and telling stories and of course EATING!!  I will definitely be putting some interesting pictures up on Monday or sometime next week....

Gotta go now because our break is over so I need to start paying attention...by the way I got an A on my first class!!  GO ME!!
