Company Arrives
I was up by 4:30 am and needed to get the coffee started early. There was much to do today. The turkey was stuffed and put in the oven by 8:00 am even before breakfast was cooked. We had a man show up at the house, it was the people that were putting the doors on Mike and Diane's new barn. Mark showed them where to go then later took the picture below of their new doors.
We have place setting for 100 but the count is 104 so some of the kids may need to sit on the couch.
Rhonda also washed all the pears and apples for the fruit bowl tomorrow.
When I got back to the house the dishes needed to be done, the garbage hauled over and the floor scrubbed. Once the house was cleaned and the turkey out of the oven the 4 pumpkin, 1 blueberry and 1 cherry pies were baked. Kim sent a message that she would be here with Tim, Allie and Strot around 5:15 pm. Mark ordered dinner from Gils. When our company arrived we went over to the barn to show them where they would be staying then back here. Mark drove to Gils and picked up our supper. After supper Ben and Taunya came so Strot could meet his cousins Jack, Jace and Abe.
Those boy cousins had so much fun tonight playing together. They had fun collapsing the bouncy house.
I think they used about every piece of equipment. We are so thrilled that Tim and Allie flew up from Texas to join us this year for Thanksgiving.
