Small, small world

you know that saying around here, never talk about anyone in Northern Kentucky because somehow it will get back to them, just because I think seriously we are all related somehow :)...In coaching Brayden's volleyball team this year, I got to know the mothers a little bit better. Yesterday we had a pizza party and I was talking to Father and one of the moms. And we got talking about different churches and what parish I grew up in. I mentioned Holy Cross and how we went there a lot especially when dad was sick. Monday nights we were there for mass a lot. Father then preceded to ask me questions like what my maiden name was, when was dad ill, what was dad's name - come to find out he had said a couple of those masses!!! He is though an India Priest you can understand, he has great English. He said he remembers those Monday nights and the whole clan being there and how awesome it was that dad had such great support and love!!!

Preceding to talk the mom that was talking with us asked me if I was related to Tom and Diana and I said of course, they are my aunt and uncle but my godparents as well. She started laughing and said well I am a Menkhaus! Get out of town! She is Barry's niece. Of course we laughed and started talking about everyone and she had said she heard the story about dad and Uncle Wally and how sad it was.

I am telling you, do NOT say anything about anyone in Northern Kentucky unless it is something nice!!!

I was once again reminded how small of a world it really is - you know, especially Northern Kentucky :)

Spring Break is upon us - woo hoo! I know some our on Spring Break this week, Brayden isn't on until next week, which is so nice to have the day after Easter off - it is such a long weekend for the kids like any Holiday! I hope everyone is doing well and if you are off enjoying your break!

UK WILDCATS NATIONAL CHAMPIONS - I know many are happy and I know dad and Uncle Wally are smiling down because I know they were both HUGE fans!!!!

Happy Tuesday - try to stay awake today after watching the game!!

Miss and love you dad ~ so much.

Much love and happiness to all,
