Bernell Buchanan Family Reunion 2012

Yes, another Buchanan reunion.  This takes place at the Sharp home every year during the second weekend in August.  And it all because of these two:
 Don't they look wonderful?!  Meet my Grandma and Grandpa Buchanan.  If there was one word to describe them it would be LOVE.  They radiate it and live by it!  
I was the co-chair of the reunion this year and it really was a lot of fun to plan activities and carry the whole thing out!  On Thursday we gathered for dinner and then enjoyed a Variety Show put on by the little ones and some hilarious games that my brother and sister-in-law planned.  
Friday morning started out with exercising at 7:30, breakfast, and then a service project.  This year we were able to help my aunt and uncle in their process of moving from Centerville to Riverton.  What a blessing service is!  We had lunch, a women's craft, water activities for the kids, an adult discussion, dinner, an emergency preparedness class, testimony meeting and games.  We played hard and enjoyed time together.  We didn't stop games until midnight last night!  
Today was supposed to begin with exercising but I think we were all too tired...we were barely ready for breakfast by 9!  We did an awesome ropes course, water games, dancing, lunch, and a family meeting.  I am the official chairman for the 2013 reunion with my aunt Bev and cousin, Devon and his wife Lauren, as co-chairs!  I am stoked about the committee!  Even though it is not for another year, let the planning begin!  Thanks to all who came and made it so special!  And for those of you who would like to join the family, mark down the dates August 8-10, 2013 in your calendar!
