Fun Festival Coming Up!

We have been busy e-mailing, checking Facebook, and phoning back and forth and I think we are definitely on the track for a great feast and a fun filled family festival! (How's that for alliteration?)

We have commitments for all of the Frogmore Stew ingredients and that leaves lots of other things for the rest of the fam to supply. We'll need butter, a couple of lemons, snack type things, like cookies, chips, etc. dips, six packs of soda, and other casseroles to appease the 'stew non eaters'. We have one person bringing bread and could use another bread contributer,one person is bringing slaw, we have fruit salads and a birthday cake but could use another dessert or two. Maybe a casserole or so of your choice if you'd like, pasta, macaroni and cheese, or baked beans, whatever! You bring it we'll eat it!

As I mentioned before there will be a 'slip and slide' thingy but the blow-up bouncy thingy is not going to be there. (That's just as well, did you see the little film clip of one of those things blowing away, with kids in it?) Bring play items and swim suits.

I have been watching the weather predictions and it looks as if it is going to be in the 90's with perhaps a few showers to cool us off. There will be tarps and tent type structures and the patio/porch to keep us dry. (We Derby goers have spent whole days under those tents in the rain! No problem>)

I am really looking forward to seeing every one! If you have any questions call either Andrea or me. Ciao
