We had such a wonderful time with family last weekend in Fredericksburg, TX.  All of us are descendants of William Andrew Robinson (1874-1952).  His children (with Una Vay King) were Rubye, Doris, William Beverly (Bev), Grayson (who died as a baby), Byron, and Roberta.  None of them are still living, but their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren gathered together for the weekend.  What a legacy!  I love the feeling that comes when family gathers…some of whom we hadn’t met…we were instant friends.  My kids loved being with their second and third cousins.  It was a wonderful occasion.

With the largest representation…we are the descendants of Byron Robinson!  And believe it or not this is only 1/3 of the porch.

Jacob is playing tic-tac-toe with Everest, a relative who lives in Paris, France and speaks limited English.  So fun!
