Just to be fully transparent, John and I invited ourselves to Oklahoma and Arkansas We wanted to reconnect with family and our parents hometowns. We kind of imposed ourselves on people we didn't know very well, but I must say we have the best families ever. They couldn't have made us feel more welcomed. Harrison, Arkansas is where my mother was born and spent some time growing up. Most of her family on her Mother's side still lives in the area. My grandfather is also buried in Harrison.
Below are pictures of the last two days with Aunt Barbara and Uncle James R., Pam and Bob, Paula and Chris, Penny and Jim and their kids, grand kids, great aunts and other cousins. So wonderful to visit with family, listen to stories and take in the Harrison, Arkansas beauty. The Harness/Edmonson family, were so much fun, generous with their time, fed us such good food and a bonus of getting to worship with them at their church. What a treat. It is so cool that in just about any place we go, we have a church family.
Aunt Barbara and Uncle James R., their daughters and their husbands are so funny. It have been long time since I have laughed that much. We already miss them. My cup is over-flowing.
We did take a cemetery tour.
