3. For Grandma's birthday dinner and party would you like it outside or at a park? What are you envisioning happening? Seriously, I want the real truth? Have you sent Jean your entry about Grandma yet? If not why not soon? OK, our family hasn't yet either we need to get on the ball. I bet no one will beat our family? Just kidding.

4. What would you like to eat at her birthday dinner and what could you make for the dinner? Does anyone in your family have any special dietary concerns that should be know before preparing the food? Digestive problems, lactose intolerant, allergies to food, burping and gas can be considered a problem and bad gas should be noted PLEASE for everyone's sake so we don't make that food as we have limited bathrooms. Anyone have issues with beans?

5. What is your family planning to do for the program or do you want a program or talent show one night? We are accepting any and all talents this includes blowing balloons w/ your nose, or any unusual talent that could surprise us all. This Question must be answered! Mandatory or a menial assignment will be given.

6. When we get the group family picture do you want some additional pictures besides the group picture? And if so can you let me know what they are so we can tell the photographer so she is aware ahead of time so she can book a certain amount of time. Do you need special lighting or need to be located in a special spot due to genetic misfortunes, or spots you are hiding?

7. Have your told Sheryl your shirt sizes yet? Please note if you don't do so by June 10th you will automatically be assumed to need a 3 XL. If you want this size there is no need to respond as your shirt will be order automatically.


8. For the weekly FHE lesson how would you like it to be handled, one huge FHE, smaller groups, done as an individual family, or the whole week is one huge FHE? If you secretly have the desire to plan and do it all by yourself please let me know as I have many wanting this position. May the best one of you win. Just know I am rooting for one of my siblings yes I am bias. I just had to let you know.

9. Would you like activities put together for your younger children and if so are you willing to be in charge of a group or assist in one? (seriously any parent of young children is going to need some ME time. Family reunions, little children, and small quarters, can often spell EXHAUSTION!

10. Would you like to go to the local ward church on Sunday?

11. Are there any fun activities or ideas that you want to see happen at the reunion?
