Family Reunion 2009

Three days after returning from the beach it was time to board the plane for another warm weather beach adventure. This time for our family reunion in Charleston, SC. I've never been to South Carolina so i was excited to see what it had to offer, but mostly i was so excited to see mi familia! The ones i haven't seen in months and the ones i haven't seen since the last family reunion in Detroit two years ago!

Thursday night was the meet and greet and here's my favorite atlanta family; Harold, Erica, and their gorgeous daughter Jordan
Dad and my little cousin Tayneesha
The guys after the meet and greet; dad, al, and charles
Family went on a tour of Old Town Charleston on Friday, the tour was very informative, I'm glad we got to do it; this here though is one of the many BEAUTIFUL homes that i would likely sell body parts to own! lol... So gorgeous
The bus stopped in the low battery area of the Ashley River so we could get out and take pictures and look around. Here are the ladies! Stephanie, Ciobhon, Me and Erica
The fam; to many of us to give names
The kiddies!

After touring Charleston we went to a park for a fantastic cook-out and some great family time, however this sign was right next to our picnic area... kind of scary, but everyone had a great time and made it out with no alligator attacks.
Stephanie and Nayia

My sister trying to steal the tire swing from the kids, *shake my head; we both actually ended up getting on the tire swing, and i think i was terrified the entire time the kids were swingin us because i thought the tire was going to snap off the swing set.

Saturday brought us a family free day, and of course we had to find the BEACH!!! the water was warm, very salty, but still warm, and it was fun times all around.
After a day of fun in the 90+ sun it was time leave, here's a group shot of everyone who survived the heat and made it to the end of the day. Steph, dad, ciobhon, tyahana, tanayia, me, J.D. and Kim!
Saturday night was our final family event; the banquet, we had great entertainment, and some awards as well but this was my favorite part of the night when everyone old and young danced the remainder of the night away!
Tah tah until next time! Next time being 2011 when the reunion's in my hood :) Cleveland!
