April 17, 2012. Canyon Lake, Texas. A Family Reunion

It was a festive dinner at David and Suzanne's home, a real mini family reunion.  Dave and Irene arrived  in a cab from the airport, just in time  to have a glass of wine before dinner.  While the girls completed their homework, the adults sat in the living room and talked.

Suzanne prepared a lovely dinner:  cheesy potatoes, green beans and pork loin roast, with two different sauces, and hot bread.   We dined in the dining room complete  with linen napkins and napkin holders.  One napkin ring was different, won by Allison.  Once upon a time, this Salvation Army crest napkin holder was owned by my Mother.   Allison, by winning the different napkin ring,  was given first choice for desserts.

All girls and adults sat together in the living room for dessert.  Ken and I prepared dessert and served brownies, cinnamon rolls and chocolate bites, all purchased at Super Store in Startsville.   Everyone was delighted to be together and we related several stories of times past.  It was fun and funny.  Even mini family reunions are a pleasure.
