Christie Eblin welcomed everyone at the front door.
Gotta have that classic Green Beans and Potato dish. Carol Martin made a delicious batch of Settlement Beans, and Paula Whobrey brought a pasta dish and a decadent dessert. I wish I could remember who brought what. I do recall chicken and dumplings, homemade chocolate cake, brownies, a refried bean salad, and so much more. In any event, we ate too much. Carol, please post the recipe for Settlement Beans in the comment section!
l. to r. Carla (Webb) Fleener, Doris (Whobrey) Web (my aunt), Virginia (Whobrey) Walker (my mother), Sharon (Whobrey) Finney (my cousin). Mom was 85 this year and Aunt Doris a remarkable 90.
Cousin Gayle (Martin) Eblin worked behind the scenes manning the sound system. (I think I see her way back in the corner in blue.) And here's some more cousins! David Webb, Becky (Webb) Hahn and Carla (Webb) Fleener.
Even the little ones apeared to have fun. I think this is my cousin Janis' grandson. I don't know ... I can't keep them straight anymore.
I'm afraid the hat didn't win any prizes. Here's my sister Debra (Oathout) Stocker and her husband Gene.
But our family auction did! We had one of the biggest hauls ever. Does anyone know where Christie lives?
I'll be looking for more family photos! E-mail me. You know who you are. :)))

I enjoyed catching up on your posts, Shari! I lost my favorites and therefore lost your blog address! Glad you posted it on the class website again! Looks like you've had a lot going on! Fun reunion...what a cool idea! Your pantry is amazing, so organized! Wow, if a hurricane hits us I'm heading to your house!
FYI, Granna is Judy H!
Hi Judy,
You know I had misplaced your as well. I had a lot of fun catching up on your blog this afternoon. We are having a badly needed day of long steady rain.
I love the photos of your flowers and gardens, as well as the garden pictures of your friends. I'm quite ashamed of mine. I guess I'll just have to buy a lot of straw and pumpkins when you come. Pumpkins can hide a multitude of sins ... and they are a natural wormer for chickens. I pop a few in their chicken yard this time of year.
What was up with Debbie's hat anyways? Is Uncle Gene trying to dump his plate onto it in that photo? Anyways, looks like it was good.

Heather, her hat was truly vintage early 1950's. It seemed to go well with her vintage dress. I only recall that Gene asked her if she was REALLY going to go like that. I don't think he cared for it.
