Romine Reunion 2007

This weekend was so much fun! We went to Las Vegas for the Romine Reunion. That is my mom's side of the family. I had not met a lot of my cousin's children and it was fun to finally see all of them. Our Great Grandma Mary Jolley was there and it was amazing at how alert she is for being 102 years old. She will be 103 in May and I couldn't believe that she could sit and talk with us, of course we had to get close and talk loud, but she could still hold a conversation. The funniest thing was when she was watching the Macy's Thanksgiving parade and Rascal Flatts was performing. She looked at the TV and said, "Now why does he have his hair all spiked up like that, why would he want to look like that?" First I couldn't believe she could see the TV without glasses, and second her voice was so cute when she said it. She loved seeing all her great-great grandchildren running around and playing. We took some 5 generation pictures with her, grandma Romine, my mom, me, and Coytt and Dalon. We also had fun playing Jake and Mallory's Rock Band game. I think my mom has found a new hobby! I can definately see many lost hours caught up in that game if we were to own one. THanks Mal and Jake for the fun, maybe we will come visit you and have a rock off :) I also learned a lot about our family this year. I had no idea Justin enjoyed getting up at 3am the day after Thanksgiving and doing the shopping thing with his wife, I didn't know Jake played the drums, that Michael was a die hard BYU fan (he stayed and watched the game by himself in his BYU gear while everyone else went out to do other things), I didn't know Shaina was going to school to teach autistic children, it was like everyday I learned something new about someone. IT was so much fun. I am especially close to this side of the family and it was nice to catch up with all my cousins and see their children. It was nice to resume my spot on my Aunt Lorie and Uncle John's couch (I used to crash there all the time when I needed somewhere to stay), it was great to see my Grandpa Romine, although we didn't get to visit much it meant a lot to me to just see him. I have always been close to my grandpa and he knows that he is my #1. I wish I was able to see him more, and hopefully we can go to Vegas more often now that I am not pregnant.

My Camera is broken and will only take video so all I have are some short videos. I hope you enjoy our singing and musical skills. All I can say is top this Osmonds :) Actually you may want to turn your volume down and just watch my mom bounce up and down as she plays the bass.

I found this interesting since I have lived in both Dallas and Charleston most recently, and that Phoenix is not on the list, I wonder what a western accent is like.

What American accent do you have? Your Result: The Midland   "You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.
