Quates-Salter Reunion October 23, 2010

Dear Journal,

My Mom, Sis, her grandbaby, Brice, my daughter, and I went to a family reunion on my Mom's side last Saturday in Deatsville, AL. I only knew one person there when we got there. This was basically my Aunt Rena's family. Aunt Rena was my great aunt because she was my Mom's Mom's sister. If I ever met her, I don't recall. I would have been quite young and she has been deceased now for many years. Uncle Melton's daughter, Joan, and her family were there also. Joan is the only one I knew. We got some good pictures with my new camera. I will post a few. Guess that is about it for now.

Happy Blogging!

Pray For Me and/or Hold Good Thoughts For Me!~

I'm the mouse here. I have had a most emotionally draining day and could so use prayers and/or good thoughts. I thank you in advance. Susan

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, MY LOVE!~

Thirty years ago today, October 7, 1978, I was in a white dress and veil walking down the isle to say I do to the love of my life, Donnie. Just months before, I had broken off an engagement with another guy that I had dated for probably 1.5 years. Donnie had also just been through a prior fairly long relationship where there had been talk of marriage. It is at this time of my reminiscing that I am glad that those prayers I prayed to God to be with the one prior to Donnie went unanswered. Donnie, too, had prayed and prayed about being with his prior girlfriend. They had planned to grow old and gray together and he was quite devastated when she broke things off with him, but you see, God had another plan… It started one night when my sister wanted me to go with her to her boyfriend, Melvin’s church to meet a friend of his. She was telling me how goodlooking she thought this guy was and how she felt we would be perfect for each other. I still wasn’t over my boyfriend, but I went along wit...

Looking out the diamond-shaped window of my back door at Winter and now Spring. Can't wait for Summer and Fall to complete the seasons through this window. Happy Spring! Susan
