family reunion and 6 months old.



The Okerlund's gathered for a family reunion in LOA Utah! We had a honky tonk good time. There were about 70 of us all together. The reunion was thoughtfully planned on what would of been my Grandfathers 100th Birthday if he was still with us. We spent time on Parker Mountain, where my Grandparents had a small one room cabin. My Dad branded the cabin with he father's branding iron and we each received a piece of wood with our very own Okerlund brand.

Connor was stung by a bee while on Parker Mountain, there is a small debate if it was actually a bee/wasp or something else {I saw thousand's of bee's} but his little lip puffed up and I was unable focus on anything else but his little face for 3 hours. He is fine.





6 months old! Connor seems to be enjoying the dose of never ending attention that his Grandparents and cousins are giving him. {we are still having a good time in Utah}.

My Mom said she saw you the other day. She said you're still darling as ever and Connor is too cute. I wish I got to see you, too. Looks like a fun family reunion.

I'm off to Utah for the weekend. Stop in and say hi if you're in the neighborhood.

That kid is getting so big! He is adorable! I heard about the bee sting. At least he isn't allergic like his dad.

Hi Emily! It was such a boost to see you and all of your family at the reunion. We miss you. I'm totally excited about this whole blogging thing, since it's a stretch for me, but if it means keeping in touch a little better, I'll try really hard to navigate it. I love you and your darling baby boy and big boy. Love, Julene
