Redneck Cousins


No, I did not find this picture on the Jerry Springer website and we did not yell "Git er' done!!" after this picture was taken.


My cousin actually posted it on the internet this morning and it gave me a flashback.

These are my cousins on my Mom's side of the family, I have two Uncles and one Aunt so that means that I have lots of cousins(some are even missing from this classy event.) The picture was from my Uncle's wedding back in ummm the 90's, I want to say around 95'ish. They decided to have a redneck rehearsal dinner since they were tying the knot later on in life. The actual wedding was at a very nice hotel in Flordia.

Looking at this picture got me to thinking, thank goodness for haircolor! I think my Mom pretty much let me do what I wanted to with my hair at that age but man did I wish she would have helped a girl out! I think she might have tried to help me and I just wouldn't let her, yes that is one of my regrets. My roots were out of control, not to mention the color in general! My sister is the one in the orange belly shirt, she would probably still bust it out today if she could find it. Kidding, Amy! The rest are cousins, oh except that one crazy little boy at the bottom being choked, well that's my not so "little" brother anymore.

I am thankful that these pictures resurface after years so that I can remember how we used to be even with the haircolor and all.

Actually it was 10 years ago (I only know cause i was 22, and newly single. So either 99 or 2000!

Never forget my attempt to help with the roots, and the green hair that ensued!

That's a cute theme for a rehearsal dinner. Where was the creativity when I did mine in '98?
