We had a family reunion over the weekend. Some cousins have been missionaries in India and were home for a couple of months, so we combined getting together to visit with them, along with celebrating my parents 65th anniversary.
It was fun. Family members came from Washington, Texas, Arizona, Indiana, New Mexico, and probably some places I have forgotten.
Christa did the centerpieces: peaches and daisies. So pretty--and then you got to eat the centerpiece afterwards. Win-win.
Mark was the MC. He had also had a helper.
Who doesn't like to try this?
Charlotte put this on the bedroom door when she and her brothers spent the night a couple of weeks ago. She wanted to read in peace. I'm leaving it up--it makes me happy
This was on the screen during the sermon on Sunday:
This is always true
I found these when cleaning a drawer.
There is a reason I bought two packages. I don't have to explain that, do I?
Just because he is so cute...
Your turn.
Your Mum and Dad look very happy together, after 65 years! Amazing! Looking forward to seeing the re-organised sewing room!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting Really Random Thursday - always a fun read! Congrats to your M&D and it looks like your family reunion was lots of fun. Love your design wall. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your studio - before & after.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun door sign... and it sounds like the family reunion was a big hit (and the cake, and the peaches, yum!). Where did you find those labels? I love them!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to your folks. That is awesome. I love the idea for the centerpieces!

Can't wait to see how your sewing room turns out!

ReplyDeleteCongrats to your mom and dad on their 65th anniversary! Hope your family all had a great time getting together. Reunions are the best!
ReplyDeleteLove that design wall. WoW!
Ha, I have some of those labels too ;o) Glad you had fun at your reunion!
ReplyDeleteSuch fun getting together with the family! I see a peace sign on the wall in your sewing room. Is that made with fabric? I'd love to see a picture of it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun weekend! And I LOVE when my kids make signs like that too. It just makes me smile to see how their minds work. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your parents. My grandparents had 60 years this summer and we had a family reunion as well.
A huge congrats to your parents- what a huge milestone! In a world where marriage seems so temporary these days it sure is nice to hear of a couple who has weathered over 6 decades together!
ReplyDeleteWow your parents are an inspiration!! We will celebrating our 10th in a month, and that feels like a long time and just yesterday all at the same time already!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary to your parents! :) I love your post. Everything about it. :) Can't wait to see the after pictures of your sewing room, and love your design wall!
ReplyDeleteI love your new design wall! The plug cut-out is genius! Good job hubs! :-)
ReplyDeleteAs usual, this is a great random post! Funny, I was just looking at your blog post for your last sewing room re-do!!! Quilt messing it up, Cindy! =)
ReplyDeleteCindy, I just love your random Thursdays!! Your folks look so happy. Can't wait to see pics of your sewing room. I must visit that place some day.
ReplyDeleteYour posts are always so uplifting to me - thank you!!
ReplyDeleteLovely random post. (You're getting quite a lot of Randomeers!) Congrats to your parents, and fun to see your brother, too.
ReplyDeleteCan hardly wait until I see the finished room. Then I'll be shamed and get to work on mine. . . if I'm not grading!
Loving the two packages of labels. LOVING!
