I have lots of pictures, so I thought I'd break them up into a few posts. The weeks leading up to the reunion were spent in preparations: lots of shopping, cleaning, organizing, and finishing up projects that have been unfinished for many months.
Here's the kitchen after getting home from the Thursday shopping trip:
My mom was over on Thursday to help with last-minute preprations, including all the beautiful flowers: (sunflowers were one of Grandma's favorites)
One of my projects to finish were new pillows for the living room:
And, after about a year, the chair pads for the wicker chairs in the kitchen:
I tried making iced tea concentrate, and it worked pretty well:
Emily turned her room into the guestroom for the weekend:
Friday was spent baking pies (blueberry, blueberry-nectarine, triple-berry, apple, and pumpkin) and a cobbler, as well as doing some of the food prep for Saturday. Family arrived in a steady flow beginning Thursday. Tomorrow I'll post some of the wonderful food we enjoyed.....
