Dinner at the Herrins was a blast!

Great time was had by all. We played charades,,, think this will be a recurring theme. Fabulous N.Carolina bbq pork. We want to all come back here again.
Great to see Margaret doing so well after her "tummy" upset last week.

Can't wait until the December dinner.

Missed those that were not there.

Planning for Herrins Nov 10 Evening

If you didn't get the email, please let Lynn know immediately (krausteads@aol.com). I'll add you to our new google distribution list.

NewsFriends App on Facebook will feed updates

Just learned that if you get your kids to add the "NewsFriends" app to Facebook, then it will feed updates from the blog into their Facebook. This might be a good way of bridging the two worlds.

Dinner at the Hunters September 22!

***********NEWSFLASH!!!********

Third Palmer Parent of Teens Dinner

Saturday September 22, 2007

4026 Turnberry Circle

(between Stella Link and Academy)

Details Now Available....

Greetings to all....This bloggger challenged mom has actually managed to sign in, thanks to Lynn Kraustead's tutorials!

How does 5:30 sound for swimming (probably mostly boys? Hopefully not....) and socializing?

We could also start at 5 or 6 if some folks have a strong preference to get started earlier or later.....just let me know!

We will have a large pot of crawfish etoufee and rice for the grown ups (??? Sarah loves it as well...), and a big vat of Crystal Light lemonade will also be available. I suggest we do BYOB, but I will definitely have a starter supply of wine. Bill Hunter has offered to pull out the grill for hamburgers and hot dogs for those folks not too fond of seafood.

Here's a "Potluck Wish List" for those who can come.

Appetizer 1
Appetizer 2--chips and dip.....
Vegetable plate
Large Green salad (we may need 2 depending on how many come)
French bread, catsup, mustard, mayo
Dessert 1
Dessert 2
Water bottles--3 cases???& a couple of bags of ice
Hamburger patties and buns
Hot dogs and buns
Stuff for S'Mores (choolate bars, graham crackers, and big marshmallows)

I would also like to send this out via email to our group but the last group mailing list I have is on my office email......if some kind volunteer could do that and send it to me at work as well as to betwilby@swbell.net I would be ever so grateful!

Best to you all, and we are looking forward to seeing you in 2 weeks!

Bet, Sarah and Bill Hunter
