This photograph was taken at the 2017 Taylor Family Reunion. There is a lot of conversation happening here, as there always is with the Taylor family, and a lot of love, too! Although these are not my blood relatives, they have been my family since 1996 and shall remain <3 The fellow in the biker t-shirt, shades, and the orange do-rag is my ex, and the father of my three youngest children.
This photograph is a great expression of an Eastern Shore family and hints at our culture. I see you, Tee Time 😉 <3

Beautiful post and photographs.
Thank you, Dear Branka! 🙂 It was a lovely day <3
It is said that we have 2 families — the one given to us by life and the one we have chosen for ourselves — the family I referred too more often than not are my 2 cousins and sister I live with — they are the home I miss when I am not at home ?
I wholeheartedly agree, Pixie <3 My family is my guy bestie, my children, my grandchildren, and the amazing people I clean for on the side. While I have a huge family that I was actually born into, I don't really fit and they don't understand much about me at all. To them, I am a riddle that cannot be solved 😉
I miss the family reunions we all used to have. Priceless memories.
I agree, Carol. My family probably hasn’t had a reunion in about two decades now. I’m thankful to have a great surrogate family to spend special time with <3 At 5'1", I'm very proud to have a 7'1" "little" boy to call me Aunt Windy lol It definitely throws people off in public 😀 I've learned the hard way that family is what you make it. It's not ruled by blood these days. Always a pleasure to see you <3 Wishing you an amazing day!
You are right Windy, we have to create our family sometimes.
Great post and story Windy!
Thank you very much, Jason <3 As you know, I wouldn't have much family if not for my "adopted" ones 😉
