Family reunion ideas11/26/2022 ![]() ![]() Not so, and I'm very reluctant and am coming across as a "crumb bum" on this issue, but Murphy's Law is ruling my thoughts on this one. I'm getting pressured for this activity, cause most people who are not horse oriented, think they can just get on a horse and ride it. size and all this newness for the horses scares me to death. I know I could ask one of them to be a "good egg" for me, but the thought of all the things that could happen with little fingers, 1200 lb. They are well trained from the ground and I can actually dance with one of them, but I don't ride that often and a saddle and little kids is also going to be "new" for the horses. I also have horses and could give rides, but it would be something right out of the blue for the horses. ![]() I did have a tractor and did the wagon rides once, but the tractor bit the dust, lol! (hobby farm, not a working farm) Any ideas on how I could "weather" this one? I've looked into renting a tent, only to find that it will cost $480 for 3 days.ugh! The picnic is only a day affair. We're having an incredibly wet year and the thought of 70 people suddenly cramming into my house doesn't attract me, if you know what I mean. My biggest concern is keeping it dry should it rain. Will be potluck, which is always a success. It will be at my house and I've got lots of land, an outhouse, shade, trampoline and pool. No fee up front.never seem to break even, but that's ok. We're not so organized as some of you are. It sure helps to eliminate some of my concerns for success. ![]() They are all great ideas! Lots of them have me laughing my head off just imagining them. Would you be able to explain how you go about this one?Īll the ideas are fantastic and I'm entertaining them all right now. I do have lots of old family pics on hand. I think the picture boards would be an excellent way to address, remember and heal this issue and help to chase the apathy away and revive the spirit of it again. The were no picnics for a few years and this one is first one again since. The children will be youngish or teenagers and little in between. The picnics had been going on for a long time until the older generation began disappearing and we seemed to get in this generation gap between sadness and no children. The picture board sounds interesting especially. What an incredible imagination and excellent ideas! I am so glad I asked! You sure got the old brain churning now! LEFTy was RIGHTly amazed to see so many downRIGHT good-looking (or you can say goofy-looking) folks to his RIGHT and to his LEFT. ![]() Then LEFTy veered LEFT and snuck RIGHT into the house. LEFTy strolled RIGHT into his neighbor's RIGHT nice yard, pulled a downRIGHT battered book of matches out of his LEFT pocket and mumbled, "alRIGHT! One match LEFT." LEFTy WRIGHT reached into his RIGHT pocket with his RIGHT hand and pulled out the downRIGHT long string of firecrackers that his friend, Mike LEFTtoe, had given him. You can change the story to suit your needs. When you say "The End", any person holding a prize gets to keep it. When they hear you say "right", they will pass the prize one time, to the person on their right, and the same with the word "left". You hand a gift-wrapped prize to some of the participants (fairly evenly distribute the prizes around the circle). ![]()
