Hey, Y’all—and Greetings from Auntie Reesie’s!
Well, as you can tell by the photo, it’s on and crack-a-lackin’ out here in Nashville, Tennessee! Now, mind you: This is only one of many photos that I was able to add on to my blog post, and in case you’re wondering, the party is still goin’ on! One thing that I’ve learned about my family (and I’m only twenty years old), is that us Joneses definitely rocks the party that rocks the body! Real talk, y’all—our family reunion is off the charts, for real, tho!
I don’t
even know where to begin, but I can tell you that we are having so much fun. I
want to state for the record: If it is a crime to have entirely too much fun at
a family reunion, then y’all may as well come by Auntie Reesie’s house, and lock
us all up and throw away the key… hahaha!
About an
hour ago, we had our own dance-off around Auntie Reesie’s backyard. First, we
did the Cupid Shuffle, and yes—Gramma Jewel tore it up! Then afterwards, we did
the Mississippi Slide… you cha-cha with
your right, you cha-cha with your left, back it up, and jump! And finally,
we did the Wobble… let me rephrase that: The women between Erica’s age and
Auntie Stephanie’s age did the Wobble! Yes, Gramma Jewel is still adamant on
her refusal to even try to learn it. And then, Cousin Keith requested that we form
a Conga line. After it was agreed upon, my mom jumped up and volunteered to be
the leader.
I’m tellin’
y’all—we’re havin’ us a good time on this day, and it will continue on tomorrow
when we head down to Memphis at Great Aunt Donna’s church (which is Gramma
Jewel’s old church). Now, check this out: I just found out that Great Aunt
Donna’s church is having a special Friends & Family Day celebration
tomorrow, and considering that we’re still in the midst of our family reunion,
y’all already know that we’re all gonna be dressed to the nines!
Okay, y’all—I
gotta get goin’ back to the fun, but I at least wanted to give y’all an update
about what’s been going on so far at Great Aunt Reesie’s. Hopefully, I’ll get a
chance to holla at y’all sometime tomorrow, but until then, y’all take it
light.
Hugs &
Kisses,
Natasha
