Family Reunion

This is so cool and I'm having loads of fun posting stuff here. Anyway as you should all know we are having a family reunion the weekend of July 13 & 14. Ian has compiled family names for us to do the temple work for (hence the picture of the Sacramento Temple). I have scheduled family baptism time for Saturday July 7th at 7:00pm and again on Friday July 13th at 3:00pm. For the baptism session we need to provide our own priesthood so let me know which times work best for you. I scheduled two times so that everyone could have a chance to do some baptisms. We can do the initiatory work without an appointment so hopefully that can get done during the week of July 10 thru 13. I scheduled endowment sessions for Saturday July 14 as follows: 7:00am - 6 reservations; 8:30am - 10 reservations; 10:00am - 10 reservations; break for lunch and fun at the Hulewsky house; 6:30pm - 10 reservations; 8:00pm - 10 reservations. Our pool is functional so we can swim and eat and there will be someone at the house at all times to babysit for those with young children. The plan is to do the temple work and then at lunch share stories about the names that have been extracted and any other stories you might like to share. It should be great fun to catch up and see everyone. Let me know what times you will be available so I can kind of organize things. I'll let you all know regarding food assignments via this website (I'm determined to get you all to check this site regularly and to start posting your own stuff so we can keep in touch). We were thinking it would be fun to incorporate some traditional Jewish foods into the lunch theme since a portion of our ancestors are Jewish so if you have any recipes or ideas please post them here or call me. If you have any questions regarding the plans so far let me know. Start planning now so this will be a big success.
