Our annual Bennett Family picnic---year 44






Here are some pics of the Bennett family picnic that we have had since I was not even one......every single year.....almost always in May. I've always been there...never missed a one. It's not one of those huge family reunions where you don't know half the people....it's just for my dad's brothers and sisters and their kids and their kids' kids. So 4 generations are there. It's held in McComb, Mississippi (near there) which is about halfway for most of us....some of us live in Louisiana, some MS. Anyway, it rained this year....a lot...but we were under a pavillion so it was okay. We just didn't get to hike or play horseshoes or volleyball like we usually do. But we did get to eat as always. Burgers and hot dogs and the works....and tons of junk food and desserts.
It was a wonderful day...and my granddaddy felt and look great! That was a huge blessing for us all.
Enjoy the pics!

I loved seeing all the photos. Sorry for the rain, but I know if food is involved, it was an enjoyable time. Oh, wait, we're talking about the Bennetts, not MY family. hahaha. Granddaddy looks fantastic!

I have only one question... WHEN is that brother of yours going to look like he's aged, even just a little bit. It's totally unfair!

Love and hugs to all!
