The Siemens Family Reunion

It has been just over two years since we hosted our turn in the Siemens Family Reunion. We had decided to host ours over a weekend as the last two were several days and they were simply too long for our liking.

Now it is Carolyn’s turn and she has scaled hers way back. It is only a weekend but will take place at her house with the focus on food. We will have Veranika/Sausage tomorrow night and Jiaozi (like pot stickers) on Sat. Unfortunately I can’t eat much of either as Veranika has wheat and the sausage grease gets to me. Then the Jiaozi has wheat so I’ll skip most of that as well.

Given the relationships between the siblings and Dale and I, we are always a little on edge for these things. But we will take this one moment at a time. And as a good friend told me this is a good time to write as family times are full of great fodder.

Apparently the rest of the family will go to the coast for several days but as we learned of these plans too little too late we will skip that part. Going for the weekend will be enough for us and we should have fun.

We will take our RV and stay in it. I’ll have my laptop and will be writing lots of notes.
