On the Porch
Onisha Ellis
Our Old Things R New annual blogger dinner was last night. I spent the week looking forward to the laughter and fellowship. As I thought about the blog and the wonderful people I blog with, I realized again how blessed I was and I wanted to do something to recognize their work and faithfulness. My daughter, Rebekah suggested certificates. At first, I balked, but as I thought about it, I grew to like the idea. It was something I could create for them.
Since we don’t all live in the same town, we met at a High Tide Harry’s Seafood restaurant. It’s location was convenient for those coming from the east and the ones from the south.
We started the dinner off talking hard and fast. It was a challenge to find an open moment to say a few words about the blog and give them a quick overview of the progress we have made. Our goal has always been to write and share, having readers is a lovely bonus. Our one disappointment was that our blogger/poetess, Louise Gibson did not feel well enough to attend.
I had been looking forward to this dinner all week and it did not disappoint So here is our “official” blogger dinner photo. (subject to change if someone took a better photo)
Fred (husband of Judy) Divoran,Bill, Judy, me and Janet
I held off giving out the certificates until the dinner was over . I mean how can you hold a certificate and eat at the same time? I almost waited too long because suddenly everyone was leaving! I went for drama and cried STOP! It was fun giving them out and each one had a gold seal of thanks on it. Since Louise wasn’t able to attend I decided to post a photo of her certificate. We were pleased her daughters joined us. as well as my husband and daughter. We really are a blogger family.
I’m already looking forward to next year’s dinner.
