Brothers and Sisters Reunite After 37 Years!

After 37 years, the Strattons finall were able to reunite. We had all visited each other individually, but have not been in the same place at the same time since 1971. We had a wonderful time sharing memories and catching up.

I love my brothers and sister. I also really love Jolene and Joanne. We are so lucky to have these two women in our lives.

We have decided to begin a new tradition and hold annual family reunions. I am looking forward to the next one in July 2010. See you there!

That is so wonderful!
I am so happy that you all are planning on getting together more
I wish our family lived closer so we could get together every year

Well, our family doesn't live close and that is why we are planning the annual reunions. Geoff lives in Tennessee. Meda lives in Colorado. Dan lives in Texas. Dean lives in New York and we live in VA. With such a distance, we have to make a plan to get together or life will steal our time away.

It was fun to catch up on your blog and see all the great activities you have been doing. I am so happy for you getting together with your brothers and sister. It seems like you had a wonderful time!
