Alabama 09

There is a great story with this picture. Apparently Doug months ago found a lady on line who claimed that she had in her possession a painting from CCBowel, (Dougs great-great granfather) that she bought in a garage sale. Doug never had a mail back from her. At the same time Tom found the same info and bought the painting from her. She mentioned to him that another person name Thomas contacted, but she lost his e mail. Tom took Doug to the basement and showing the painting. The both have love for geneology.


Cookie and Kim drove twice that weekend to hung out with us. They are such a pleasant company. Cookie brought me back a bottle of shampoo that I left at her house five years ago that we visited them. I thought that was so thoughful and cute.
Look at the huge trees, everithing is so green and outside smells like a vegetation. I was so crazy about humidity but still beutiful scenery.
Doug with his older cousins, Tom Horton and Tommy who lives in Atlanta.
Megan and Lauren also were there, they flew from SLC and ABQ to grandmas funeral

Diann is in the middle. She is Tom's wife. Ww both liked each other. She was so kind to all of us, my kids kept telling me how much they liked her. Tom and Diann were wonderful hostes.
Noah and Josh (Tom's kids) Raley (Tommys' doughther) and my kiddos had a great time playing along. 30 min before I took this picture, there was a huge storm. I could not believe how dry the grass was. I if course sprayed all the kids with mosquito repellent.
Susi (Coockie's doughther)and Trudy (Tom's wife) hunging out with Ann. Susi looked fabulous. Trudy helped me tons with the Mexican dinner, and she complimented it the food.
I took a picture after some people have left. It was a great trip and a great introduction to our kiddos to our extended southern family.
