Lyd's Florida Family, Fall-2009

The following 2 pictures are actually the last pictures taken for this trip to Florida. Laura and I were saying good-by at good ole McCoy/Orlando Inter.

~Now that you have seen the ending, scroll down to see the beginning~

My Florida Family, or at least some of them. Many Many are MIA's! Laura and Ryan came in from Germany. Ryan's mom and brother flew in from Crosby. Ruth from Germany, via Cape Canaveral. Of course David and I caught a Southwest flight from Houston. Then we ended up in St. Cloud at my brother's (Tim and Deb) and enjoyed lots of food and fellowship! Thanks Debbie for getting us all together, (and Tim!).

Pictured left to right: Deb, Tim, Lyd, Dustin's wife and baby, Dustin, Uncle Jack, Joyce Marie, Dad, Laura, Bobbi Jo, Mother and Baby Dave.

Mom and Dad and my 3 kids! We were all respresenting Texas A&M, until....

Dad decided he couldn't leave out his beloved "Florida Gators"!

The following pictures were taken at Nana Bleakney's after a "pig-out" at Sonny's bar-b-que, (our favorite!). Dave and I used to take the kids to Sonny's after church on Sundays for their 99 cents kids-meal, also our favorite place to eat in Florida!

Giselle, Ava Marie, Laura and Kathi. Ava is Kathi's grand-daughter and Giselle her daugher-in-law and Kathi is my sister-in-law, Clayton's wife.

(My brother Clayton passed away on June 5th, 1990, the day we moved to

San Antonio, Texas.)

Ava and Laura after a very very long day! Lord, thank you for my darling daughter, bless her with her own children some day soon!
