Meeting the Family...

You guys….I am meeting C’s whole family next week!!!

Eeeek!

I am so excited….and a little scared.
Little College aged C....how cute is he?

Since I didn’t get to meet them in Philadelphia for his game in May as planned we are flying to his hometown in Maryland for a week to visit them. 

He has a huge family.  Seriously. Giant.  His grandmother had 18 children….meaning C has 60 FIRST cousins alone. He has 4 immediate siblings which I know we will be spending a lot of time with, but I know I will be meeting a lot of the other family members too!  They are planning a surprise party for an aunt while we are there as well as a huge barbeque at Grandma’s!
To put it in perspective….I have 5 cousins. Total. That’s a big difference yes?
I can’t wait to see where C grew up. He plans on taking me crabbing and to explore an island near where he lived as well as barbequing an ENTIRE pig with his family. This city girl might have a bit of a culture shock!
Also, my brother is going to come by for a day or two as well.  He has to drive from upstate New York to Phoenix and Maryland it right on the way.  It will be an invasion of my family.  2 people. That’s half my family!
Finally, we just got tickets to the Redskins vs. Eagles game!  If you’ve been reading long enough, you know I have a goal in life to see a game at every NFL stadium.  This is one I will be able to check off my list.

Wish me luck!!

  1. Oh my God, 18 kids? I have a little family but I always wanted big. C is kind of lucky kid with so many cousins. Good luck in your trip!

  3. 1st ignore the deleted comment. That was me in the persons design I am in the process of installing. But wow 18! That is insane. I have never seen more than 12 by one mom. But that is really cool he has so many cousins. I only have one and it sucks.
