    Happy Friday! Thank you for the links!
    I'm hosting our annual family reunion. My 4 brothers, their spouses, 3 cousins and their spouses and whichever nieces and nephews show up. Bonus that my sons are home for it as well. We've been doing this for 19 years. They all get here tomorrow so today will be hectic preparing. Have a great weekend!

    I have laundry to do tonight after work, a meeting tomorrow morning, house stuff all weekend, and probably mowing the lawn on Monday since we're due some heavy rain tomorrow. And I will be watching college football. A ho-hum kind of weekend but I am SO looking forward to the calendar turning over to September!! Have a super weekend!
