Family reunion - some thoughts

Hey guys and gals,

I was thinking about the reunion and came up with some questions as we figure out the details:

  • What location or facility are we going to have the reunion at?
  • What type of rental fees, if any, will there be?
  • Should we do t-shirts, ties, bandannas, etc. with Goulding Reunion 2010 on it?
  • What type of food are we going to have - cater or homemade?
  • What types of games, entertainment, activities are we going to have?
  • We need pictures of the family, where are we going to have these taken?
  • What about music - none, live (local band, dj, etc.), cd?
  • What type of fun will there be for adults?
  • What type of fun will there be for young adults / kids?
  • What type of fun will there be for infants / toddlers?
  • What type of fun will there be for guys?
  • What type of fun will there be for gals?
  • Will there be an area available for infants and toddlers to play/sleep?
  • What is our "weather permitting" alternative?
  • Is this going to be an indoor or outdoor event?
  • How many/much .... will we need - tables, chairs, t-shirts, food, drinks, etc.?
  • How much are families willing to "donate" to cover costs ($10, $25, $50, $100, etc.)?
  • How many days are we planning on having "family reunion" related activities?

Those are the questions I have for now, let's continue to discuss so that we have this all figured out way before the actual event.

Lots of LOVE!!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year!!! Well winter came in finally with it's snow and cold. I guess not as cold as it is in Ellijay, but cold enough to dump 12 - 14 inches of the white stuff on the ground. There were pretty high seas and drifting of snow. In the front yard there is pretty green grass showing through most of the snow with about 23 -30 inch drifts along the front fence. Pretty but the only thing the snow is good for right now is insulation against the drastically cold weather. We are in for another storm I guess Friday and Saturday. OHHH the life of a New Englander. Will send more later if I can get some pictures to send with it.
Love you all,
Mom and Dad (who is out shoveling this gift of white.)
