Thanks TrenAman , SxeC6 and all others but please state how much of each, we really need to know exact amounts of what everyone is bringing to assure we have the right amount and not too much or not enough.

Also if you want to pitch in and help grille let us know!!

Becky and I will be there. Right now we're planning on bringing 2 cars. We'll bring sliced tomatoes and onions, say 6 onions and 12 tomatoes.

Kevin and I really wanted to come, but this is the only weekend my nephew and his girlfriend can come to Houston for an Astros game. My girls are super anxious to see him, and I am as well, so we have to skip the picnic.

We'll look for pix of everyone after the event!

Yall have fun!
