Let The Games Begin

I have been very busy preparing for the Gilbert games tomorrow. After our mother died, my siblings and I decided we would each host an annual get together in any form we wished. my last turn, a daughter and i came up with the idea of these games. Now it's my turn again! So I have been very busy preparing for this. So here is today's shot - a photo of the invitation I did. All my siblings are coming (couple here now!) and many of our children and grandchildren. Big weekend coming up :)
Thanks to everyone for the great comments on both the pelican and swan photos - I haven't got time to thank everyone personally, but I really appreciate the follow and comments :)

Great idea. So nice when family gets together to enjoy each other, remember loved ones, and just have fun.

[Francoise]

looking forward to the pictures! I love those kinds of charges that have one extremely specific task (e.g. annual get together) and then leave the details completely up to individuals. I've been thinking about this concept a lot when it comes to assigning work to students.

[Poppo Livy]

Ha ha Sounds great Denise. Look forward to some shots of the events.
Pool and brolly dives?
