Coming off of two great weekends

On July 20th Keith, Diane, Ivan and myself took a trip to see Aunt Edna. She is one amazing woman. She is my Dad's sister and in December she will be 90 years young. I so enjoy spending time with her. She misses my Mom so much. Her and Mom were more like sisters. She has so many memories and it is so great just to sit and listen to her. Although this visit she did mention a couple of times that she wonders why she is still here. We told her the Big Guy just wasn't ready for her yet and she had to be here to keep tabs on us Morgan Kids and attempt to keep us in line. Enjoy the pic's below.



Last Friday, I left for a trip up to see Kevin, Caryn and Grey. It was a long drive, and I am so happy that I had my Ipod cause I hate radio anymore. Arrived safe and sound and was ready to bond with my Great Nephew, Grey and oh yeah, Kevin and Caryn. Their house is awesome. They are like a block away from WIU. Grey is one handsome little man and yeah I am a biased aunt, but so what I call em like I see em and you can look at the pictures below and see that I am not lying.



Both weekends made me think alot of Mom, brought back many memories. Aunt Edna so loved Mom that she talks about her and calls me all the time to check up on me and the rest of the Morgan clan. And Grey was born 2 days before Mom died. One of the last conversations that I had with Mom was how happy we both were that Kevin and Caryn were getting a little one. I remember her saying that they were going to be great parents and it was about time. I know Herbie and Betty Mae are watching over that little guy and also Turtle and Anna Belle.

On the way up to Macomb, I saw a roadside stand selling sweet corn, as soon as I saw it I was crying. Remembering how I would take Mom to get her tomatoes and she would always end up getting sweet corn. As soon as we got home she was shucking it and cooking it. She made us a meal of sweet corn. I would stuff myself then lay around complaining while picking corn out of my teeth. She would tell me to cut it off the cob like she does, but I never would, too lazy I guess. Going to have to buy me some corn and have a sweet corn meal again.
