It's a small world
Over the course of this past Memorial Day Weekend, a revelation was made!
We here in the O'Mellan household would like to welcome a new (sort of) member to the family............Adam McConnell!
That's right, Adam's related. Not to me, mind you, but to my lovely wife. As we found out this past Sunday while Kristi's mother was in Lincolnton and driving around taking in the local flavor, she used to come down from Atlanta as a little girl with her father and stay with some relatives.
Well, after running down the family tree, confirming Joan's story with Susan Cline (aka: Susan McConnell), it has been reveled that Kristi's grandfather and Adam's grandmother were indeed first cousins.
Fast forward a number of years, a couple of marriages, a couple of births and lo and behold two college friends that have hung together roughly 10 years, they find out they're kin.
What a freakin' mind trip!
I'll let everyone make their own assumptions, comments, innuendos, jokes, etc. ¶ 8:18 AM
