Everyone helped to make the reunion go smoothly and happily. Anita was in charge of organizing and supervising cleanup. This time it was the boys' turn to do dishes in the dining hall.
Jonathan helped pull out huge, heavy casserole dishes from the oven.
Carrie flying about sweeping.
Anita keeps living up to her reputation as a "workhorse:" always busy working and helping, cleaning stove or whatever needs to be done.
Anna scraping pans after meals.
Sisters (Dorcas, Anna and Kezia) laying a tablecloth.
More sisters, only younger. It was so sweet to see bigger sisters helping swing little children and keeping them happy so the adults could have a good time.
Kezia tuning her harp as Iva prepares to practice a bell song.
Jonathan is chief popcorn maker on Sunday evening, and the night before we left. We had to make HUGE quantities of popcorn!
Natasha making Carrie's hair before pictures on Tuesday, the big day when all of us were together for pictures and music in the morning.
The guys pushing the hay wagon into the picture or out of the picture.
This picture is clear out of order, but it shows one of the dorms where the clan stayed, and the girls carrying sheets down to make beds. Because our family got there along with Craig and Joella first, we got to help clean and make beds for most everyone ahead of time. The girls had so much fun working together while I ironed and laundered. Seems there is so much ironing to do if you travel with nine people and have to go to church services next day and have pictures a couple days later!
