I am so excited! I am leaving early in the morning and returning late Monday. We haven't had one in 60 years (none in my life time for sure).

Any fabric shops in Princeton or Tiskilwa Illinois?

Suggestion..take your family photo album with you. My family does that, and it's startling to see your own face 2 or 3 generations back, and with everyone wearing such funny clothes!!
And take pictures of each family as they stand together, then another group while someone takes your pictures, etc. All those pictures should have names written on them as soon as printed, plus dates and places.
Have fun and talk till you are tired, eat till you are stuffed (get new recipes from the makers) and enjoy all your family.

Have fun with your family!! I remember going to family reunions when my grandmother was alive (on my mother's side). Now just about everybody has passed on. I had a lot of peculiar family members.
