Joshua met my family. He's met my Mom, my Grandmama, and my Father before. But he has never been to a big family get together, or met my Uncle Edgar, and cousin Mark (two important peeps to me.) My Uncle Edgar is moving to Missouri at the end of this month. He's retired, and he and his family are going to be living on their ranch there, breeding horses. My Aunt Maryanne (Marzie) is really into horses. She's done dressage for years, and horses have always been a big part of her life. At her parents house (the place that the going away party was), they had a frieze of horses in motion, that I swear looked like the one that was over the Equus bar. We had a good time. Joshua did the driving. When we got to my Uncle's house, he was a bit nervous. But he did really well. He came in and my uncle gave him a big hug. Everyone did. It was good. We went to the party, and everything was good. My grandmama and Joshua were like old friends. And my father was even there. I had some weird feelings when my father and Joshua went off and talked together alone for a while. But it was all good. I met Sixto, my father's right hand man. He's young. Joshua thought he was 19, but I think he's more like 24ish. Venezuelan men look very young and fresh for a while. Sixto was a model...which adds to this. He's nice. I actually liked him. I was surprised. Overall yesterday was great! Joshua commented a few times after we left, how he was really glad he went, really glad he got to meet my family, and how much he liked them. -I'm glad.
loved
