Family Traditions

My husband is descended from a family that has been in rural North Carolina since shortly after the Revolutionary War. George Eagle, Sr. and his son George traveled from Pennsylvania to Rowan County. There they settled, and there their family remains, nearly all the members. This weekend, we spent a few hours at the Eagle Family Reunion. We got the award for most miles traveled.

The girls did well as did Finwe. Inwe has a soft spot in her heart for Phill's physician-farmer uncle, Jim. Larien realized that he is a neat person as well. Finwe just roamed the fellowship hall being cute and asking to poop on the potty, which he did. (Read nothing in to that. He's not ready for real potty training.) What Finwe wouldn't do is sit still for any photo worth taking. Therefore, he is absent in the photos below.
