for all the blessings I have!

My family arrived on Wednesday...one family at a time until everyone was here! OK...."most everyone"! My dream is "one day" to all sit down together......it will be awesome! For the moment I am "thankful" I have so many around me.
On Wednesday evening we skyped Ben's family and Scott, Lisa and Grant......the big moment arrived....Amanda and Ben did such a cute thing. They had their ultrasound done Tuesday and had the doctor put which sex it was in an envelope then they took the envelope to their friend and she made a cake for them.......We all got to find out at the same time.......

Anytime I can figure out how to make it a party I will! I had to decorate to make it seem more like a "party" for a party it was!
Oh what color will it be inside?????????????????????????????????????????????????

do you have a guess?????????????????



That would be "blue".....which means it is going to be a BOY! It was so much fun to share in their news this way!
My dining room is so small and just does not accommodate everyone and we have to eat in separate rooms...Marnie came up with an idea and we all shot her down thinking it would be just way too much W O R K! She did NOT give up on the idea so we gave in and decided to "DO IT"!

We moved the dining room into the living room and the living room into the dining room! Yes it was some work but everyone pitched in and we were able to sit together as a family!



It was not easy to get the food prepared and ready to serve with the small kitchen I have ......... you could find the "zinn women" just about anywhere to make the meal preparation! :)


Everyone helped with the food preparation and it certainly was fun to see what they created!
After we ate and cleaned up it was time to get down to some "serious" game play!

Cameron worked a double shift.....and had has had little sleep...so family was happy to help him out!


How could I not feel "deep gratitude" for all the blessings I have in my life!
Thank you Scott and Lisa for including Grant in your plans for the weekend! My family is
ama Z I N Ng

I hope everyone had a wonderful "day"
I count each of you as my greatest blessing
