Here are the 15 sunbonnets I sewed for Sister Siims - she was in charge of the July 23rd senior dinner. She made the cakes last month for the dinner I was in charge of - I loved sewing them - she combined the 4th of July with the 24th for the party!
The sisters liked them! Everyone wore red, white and blue also! Sister Sims had someone coming from the US bring the flags - and we all took one or two home with us.
There were only 6 bandanas for the men - so they held flags and Elder Sims wore a bonnet around his neck all evening!
Creative Sister Forsyth made this fruit platter - I should have taken the picture earlier!! delicious. I made Cowboy baked beans, we had shredded beef and chicken hamburgers, potato salad and lots of fixings!
Elder Sims had complained to Sister Sims that the plates are always too small - so she got these platter ones! Trouble was you filled it too full!! The couple that are in charge for Thanksgiving took them home to wash and reuse then!! I am in the background reading the story of George A. Smith and the men who scared the Indians away by taking off a wig, false teeth and a peg leg!!
Everyone enjoying the evening. I should have taken a picture of the food table - loaded as usual!
Sister Sims had some fun games to play - stacking the red cups, etc. Everyone was a good sport! Elder Sims is at the far right with his phone timing the ...'minute to win it!'
The Walstons and the Swifts - you blew up a balloon and then tried to knock the cups off with the air in it! Swifts won!
We always enjoy the monthly dinners - and each couple is in charge only one month on their whole mission! It is fun to help each other - more work than one couple should do!!
