Hi guys - this is your Aunt Debbie from Washington state. Do you remember coming to our house when you had your family reunion in Idaho? I am liking checking out your blog - good job! I love to see current pics. I miss our big reunions. I think we should have the "real" last Smith reunion and just tell grandma to be there or be square! What do you think? Aunt Deb
