ANNUAL SELF FAMILY REUNION WAS A BLAST

The annual Self Family Reunion was held September 24 at the Pearson Springs Rotary Pavilion in Maryville, Tennessee. I probably say this every year, but the reunion just gets better and better. The attendance gets better and the food and fellowship get better. We enjoyed a delicious meal and some wonderful conversation that lasted into the early evening. It was so good to see everyone have a good time. I apologize for not getting the photos posted sooner, but I had some difficulty. Thanks to everyone who was able to attend. We plan on meeting at the same place next year.
