Time with Family (Layered Salad)

My cousins Brooke and Paige have moved out to California and their brother, Brian now lives in New York. This summer we were lucky enough to get to visit with them at my Aunt Jackie's house. Her house is on a lake and we often get together there for family functions. It's perfect.

I can't exactly remember if we had this layered salad at my Aunt Jackie's house this summer, but it is definitely something we always have at our family get togethers. It's a good salad and most people really like it.
