80 never looked so good...

over the weekend my great uncle bobby turned 80, he is the younger brother of my maternal grandfather. bobby is a total ham, very funny even at 80...

(uncle bobby, grandpa, and their sister merry's husband uncle tom)

both sets of families attending his new york celebration and it was so wonderful to see not only my own first cousins, but my second and third cousins as well. both my grandfather and uncle bobby had 5 children of their own, so there are lots of children & grandchildren for the young family! it's a side of the family i haven't spent much time with but i'm hoping to see more of them in the near future...
