Welcome!

Those of us who were able to make it to Valdosta were talking and thought it would be fun to have a cousin reunion. Kim and I (Kathy) thought it would be a good idea to start a blog so it would be easier to plan and communicate about our Howard Cousin reunion Trip. We can add polls, pictures, website info. etc. Please help spread the word among the cousins. Please feel free to add whatever you want, comments, ideas, etc to the blog! If you have ideas for polls let us know. Also, please let us know if you would like to be on the planning committee. I think it would be helpful if we had one representative from each family to help plan the trip (1 Bleyle, 1 Miller, 1 Howard, 1 Hodgkins) but of course we want every ones input. Just let us know by posting a comment. It will be so fun getting to know all of you better and meeting your kids! See you Summer 2009!

Awesome blog, cousins! Thanks for setting it up. I (Susan) am happy to be on the planning committee on behalf of the Bleyles. Is there a way to change the month poll to allow for multiple selections? I'd like to be able to vote for two out of the three months.
I'm personally pulling for Okrakoke island because I've always wanted to go, and it is, after all, the home turf of the Howard ancesters. Any of the other suggestions sound great, as well.
Looking forward to planning a great reunion with you all!

I am very open to any idea that occurs in the summer months listed. Given the different ages of everyone's kids, I can see it being difficult to find a consensus. I personally like the idea of going to anywhere that has an all inclusive type options (i.e Universal, a cruise etc). I think we will have fun no matter where it is. The difficult thing will be keeping the momentum going and not giving up on the idea.
