Zeug Reunion


This is one of the special numbers at the reunion.
We drove up to the Old School Center in Farmington, IL with a car load of breakfast foods and had less than an hour to finish preparing it before the group descended. Dan and Susan were the BEST! Dan got the elevator going so I could get it all hauled up to the kitchen. Susan jumped right in and started helping me with the food. Sarah and Mark started setting up tables and chairs. Thank goodness for the school it rained all day so we changed our reunion plans from going to Norris on Saturday to going to Norris on Sunday and stayed at the school all day. The kids (all those under 84 years old) played basketball, volleyball, used the game room, sang, had special numbers watched a skit some of the cousins had prepared, watched 2 movies, Facing the Giants and Fireproof and of course ate and ate and ATE! The Old School Center is fantastic for family reunions, It is so huge, there is so much to do and so much room to do it in. We had about 95 people show up, I think around 80 for breakfast, then as the weather wasn't suitable for outdoor sports a lot of the older cousins started showing up to play. Dan Meister, Barb Munther, Peter Bossart, Mark Meister and Tony Munther all played their instruments while the rest sang. I'll be making a video of some of the activities. It has been such a wonderful time.
