Thanks for coming

Thank you to everyone that came to Flathead Lake last weekend. I had the best time. Who wouldn't have a good time with all the talking, continual eating, games and more games, quilting, eating, shopping, laughing and getting to know each of you. Let's plan on doing this again.
I will see you in May in SLC.

I have heard that the Raybould's, Rick's, and Palmer's will be staying at the rental home.

Go to VRBO.com to see the rental home. #22522 Swan Family Home, Polson, MT

I have rented the neighbors home. They have up to 10 places for people to sleep. Let me know if you want to stay there. The price will be around $80.00 a piece for the weekend plus a 7% tax. First come first serve. Or you can sleep on a blow up mattress at my place for free.
I will have the breakfast and lunch food at our cabin and we will split the cost with everyone. The three dinners will be divided up.
Thursday night - Mom & me (sloppy Joes and potato salad)
Fri. night - Palmers and Rayboulds (something chicken)
Sat. night - Mortensen and Ricks (????)
I have most of the basics for cooking here. Let me know what you will need.

Okay, August events are almost over and it is time to start thinking about September; that means the Mortensen girls plus Ted weekend on September 23-26th. It is almost here! I was wondering what you would like to do about food? Should we divide the meals up by families or should one person be in charge (like Kathy did at Rosena's) and we all divide the cost? Let me know your feelings and if anyone wants to volunteer.
Vera is going to be in Missoula this coming weekend so I will talk to her and make more plans.

Lynette and LeAnn are coming. That makes everyone except the Brown girls; hopefully they will change their minds.

Yeah, Mary Anne is coming.

I saw to Rella last weekend in Sandy and it sounds like she and her girls will not be coming; they will be missed.
The invitation is slowly getting out to everyone; if I'm correct these are the people who are coming. Ted, Mindy, and K'Lyn are a yes. Vera Mae, Valerie, and Kathy are a yes. And so is LeAnn, but have not heard if Lynette will come. Deanna and Susan are coming, but I don't know about Mary Ann. Of course, Ladene and Saundra are coming. I'm excited to see everyone again.
Does anyone have some pictures of last year to post or memories? I would like to see them.

What is a page? Can I create a 2006 memory page so everyone can put their photos and memories on that page?

Save the Date

Come, Come all ye Mortensens
September 23 - 26, 2010
This will be the 2nd Mortensen girls plus Ted get together. I hope you can all clear your busy calendars and join us for another weekend of laughing, eating, talking and playing cards. Our cabin on Flathead Lake is very, very, did I say very small, but I think we will all survive and there is no better way of getting to know everyone than rubbing elbows. Right? We do have a loft plus two trailers and a bunk house, so there will be space to sleep.
I still have the e-mail addresses from the last time we met, so I will send out an invitation to all the ones I have. If you see that I have missed someone please invite them to come and also to go on this blog to get updates and to talk to each other and make plans.
Please post pictures and comments from our last get together.
I'm excited, are you?

PS. This is the first time I have made a blog so if you have any comments please help me; as some of you know I need a lot of help.
