THE "COUSIN-HOOD" OF THE TRAVELING SKIRT, PART DEUX



Ah, the lovely Hannah
on the left and Anna on
the right
Sara of Brigham Gables



Emily of clan Whitcomb on the left and
Emma of clan Hutchins on the right









Abigail of Lunnenburg Village on left



Sarah, maid in waiting, of Houghton Mill on the right







Naomi, fair maiden of Gales Ferry on the left





Hannah of Hogwort on the right, learning the wizards knitting trick










Abby, teaching Nana how to knit one and pearl two











Some of us went wii, wii, wii, all the way home























STRIKE THREE, YER OUT!!!!!













SISTERS OF THE Wii-Jii










What??? could this possibly be??














Ah, yes, the transformation is almost complete









I AM "MANN" OF GREEN GABLES !!




















We learned a lot about genealogy and all of the "hood" went home with a 4 generation genealogy chart starting with themselves and ending with their great grandparents
































This family tree chart starts with my Aunt Jessie and her husband Richard Sprague and goes back to the 1500's










Sleep? What? No way. Just hide in the blankets and giggle all night













Ah, we do know how to eat. The potatoe bar was a fav of everyone's































There were more pics but I still don't know how to arrange them without losing some of them. Sorry. My blogging is like my singing. Off key, out of style, but very enthusiastic.

Dad--I loved it! You almost got me in trouble at work, though, when I burst out laughing at your "Mann of Green Gables." Fortunately, my boss thought you were just as funny as I did--so he didn't kick me out of the hush-hush library where I type. Seriously, though--you need to stop that hormone therapy; it's a little scary.

Very nice. It look to be a fine gathering. Mann of Green Gables is a new clasic. I may make it my new background on the computer.

My girls are SO sad looking at these pictures. They want a repeat. :) Mann of Green Gables need to make an appearance at the next reunion. FUNNY!

(and may you host the next dozen or so of those things...)

I'm still laughing! Loved theirs and your new nicknames! Miller recognized you, not sure if that's a good thing!

Looks like a lot of fun. Megan was sad that she missed it. We all had a good laugh over your nails and hair changes. Takes a strong man to allow his granddaughters freedoms of such. They will remember that forever!
