what reunion is this?

To have a little fun with this blog, I'm posting some old pictures I scanned. Who can guess the year and place of this reunion? Feel free to place your guess by commenting. And, who can you identify?

Making Plans

Hello everyone!!!! I know that I said I would keep everyone updated, but the past several months have been a bit crazy with our family. But I'm trying to do better, so here's an update..... We've been finalizing some details for next year's reunion, to be held at our home near Jamesport, MO, the largest Amish community in the state. We'll be getting the letters out sometime after the first of the year with all of the details, but start making plans now. We know that money can be tight, but this is my favorite event of the entire year, and I hope you'll make it a priority in 2009. We can't wait to see you and have you at our home. I'm including some pictures of our land and also our outbuilding, which we call Woods Crossing and my sister, Amy, calls the Party Barn. Right now it's cold and snowy here, but come June, it will be green and beautiful.
