47/365 Pre Easter/Ruiz Family Reunion

Through the wonders of Facebook my family on my dad's side has been reunited!  As a kid growing up I was close with my many cousins (My Grandma  Carrie was the 10th of 11 children) and often visited my Auntie Connie, Auntie Angie, Auntie Inez, & Uncle Henry.  Naturally, the descendants of those aunts and uncles were alway my favorite and always a treat to spend time with.  Over the years everyone has blossomed with their own growing families and we haven't really taken the time to connect with our now "extended" families.  My dad's 50th birthday party was the first get together that sparked us to ask the question, "Why don't we get together more often?!"  So thanks to my Auntie Georgia... We did!

My grandma's sister Auntie Angie, whom I am named after.
