When I called Dad last night, he and Mom wanted to discuss some of their thoughts about the reunion. I want to nominate our collaborative blog, Ginormous Turnip (tm Jeff), as a discussion space. I think that the easiest way to share our ideas and preferences about the weekend will be to make individual posts for specific questions and topics, then each of us can respond to those issues in the comments, or raise new issues by writing new posts.Mom and Dad realize that with everything involved in Steve and Shawna’s wedding, and with the difficulties attendant upon each of our families living out of suitcases for the weekend, we are going to have to be more flexible than at last year’s reunion. Keeping our plans minimal and our expectations limber will help to ensure that we all enjoy our time together. Anyway, we’ll be best able to preserve time for talk and play if we keep things informal.
That said, Dad feels really strongly that we keep some continuity from last year’s reunion. What is important to you to see in this year's reunion?

Someone mentioned that there might be a conference room at the hotel that we could reserve. Do you want me to check on this? It might be a nice space for auction.
I think that might work, but will the kids be okay being cooped up in a conference room? At least at the house there's a yard for them to run around in.
As for things we want to see in this reunion... I personally thought the food at the last reunion was a definite highlight. There is a full kitchen at the house, we should talk more about the possibility of a few meals together there.
