Now to sum it all up.
Nanna and Gran had four children: Terry, Randy, Donna, and Tracy.
Those four children got married and had children of their own and most of those children married and gave their parents grandchildren Each of those grandchildren are just a few months apart in age.
Terry married Diane and had Matthew and Timothy. Matthew married Kim and now they have Avery. Avery was born on Tax Day in 2008.
Mrs. Pruitt, Vanecia, Bud, Cortney, Parker, and Brooks are all related to Diane.
Eric and Kendall are friends of Timothy and they have 2 little boys with a third on the way.
Emily is Timothy's girlfriend and she has a sister named Katie. She brought her mom and grandparents.
Randy married Sheila and they had Justin. Justin is too young to get married and have kids yet. Sheila's sister and her boyfriend also came to party.
Donna married Freddie and had me, Hope, and Seth. I married David and we had the first great-grandchild for Nanna and Gran.
Tracy had Derick, Kerry, and Kira and then met and fell madly in love with her husband, Todd. Derick married Crystal (they were the first grandkids to get married) and had the baby great-grandkid Lance. Kira met Anthony and they had the third great-grandbaby, Jacob. Kerry met Laura and her son, Eli, and fell madly in love. They are getting married in Tennessee on July 18 giving Tracy her third grandson and making Eli the oldest greatgrandbaby.

That pretty much sums everybody up. We may be a large and crazy family, but we're family and we love to get together very much. We love to get together and eat and catch up on everything. We can't wait for our next big party.
