Everybody Dance Now!

We love the D.J.....but not as much as Aunt Cindy, and Aunt Sandy....They really danced from the moment he started until he stopped...I don't know how they did it....Sorry Bethany you were out done this year....LOL

Becky I don't believe your glass is big enough...LOL
George get down with your bad self....

Sandy, Cindy, and Becky

Lucas, and Rosa

I do love that we have a D.J. at our reunion. It makes it so much more fun. The older ones love it, and the younger ones do too....I know there was some craziness this year about the music, but in the end it was just good clean fun!!

Sittin' around

When you tell other people outside the "Uphold Circle" that our family reunion starts at 2p.m. and goes until well after midnight they just don't understand. They say what on earth are yall doin' all that time? Well the answer is 'Sittin' Around' of course. We are a great big drinkin', lovin', want to spend all day and night with ya kind of family. The next thing they usually want to know is how can they be apart of it. There is only two ways:

1) you have to marry into the family

2) you have to be so cool that you are invited....

Dance Dance Dance

How low can you go?

When the kids hear this famous line 'Jack be nimble Jack be quick Jack go under the limbo stick.' They know what time it is. Limbo time. Cindy and Sandy held the stick while all the kids (and adults) had a turn going under the limbo stick. I'm glad to see we didn't have any faces scrapping on the ground like last year. Cindy and Sandy did an awesome job at keeping the kids (and adults) under control...Hee Hee That's a pretty fancy stick they are using isn't it. Well its not exactly a limbo stick. It is Butch's walking stick. Thanks Butch.

Ha! Ha! I still got it!

Not only can Becky still get down, she can do it with a cigarette in hand.

If you can't get bend backwards just crab crawl.

You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment. ~Dave Barry, "Things That It Took Me 50 Years to Learn"



Normally I would agree with this quote, but for these beautiful women we will make an exception.
