Life and Such

Where to begin? Well, Hollice and I went to my family reunion last Saturday. I was very proud of my family. This was their first time meeting Hollice. Let me explain. My family is from two very little towns in North Carolina. They were raised a little differently. I was worried that they would be rude or mean to Hollice. But everyone was very nice. Hollice said he's never gotten that many hugs at one time before. I was so relieved. It was a long day, though. We got up at 430 am to drive to Durham and then left about 430 pm to go back home.
On a weird note, I found out that I'm adopted. Well, sorta. My mom had me really young and her and my grandparents were afraid that my real dad was going to steal me and take me to Germany. (His family was army and they were being transferred) So, in order to protect me, my grandparents adopted me. Not only for that reason, but to help my mom. She was still in high school and this gave them a chance to put me on their insurance and help pay for stuff. It's kinda odd. I mean, I don't care. I think it's really great that they would do that. But I'm an strange person who thinks strange things. Like, legally, my mom is also my sister. And my brother's are not only my brother's but my nephews. Wow. We really are from the south!
Anyway, the wedding plans are going smoothly. Only two more weeks!! We still have not found a place to live. We are looking hard, but nothing yet.
Oh, yeah. I got locked inside my car the other day. I know, I know. Only me. My window came off track and was upside down. And my driver's side door wouldn't open. I took it to the dealership today and they fixed it. Thank goodness. It's very annoying to get in and out the passenger side.

I will leave you with a pic of Hollice and my grandmother/mom.
