This past weekend was a family Reunion for Andy's Ancestor's that joined the church in Denmark and lost almost their entire family except the 2 sons who did survive getting to Salt Lake to be with the rest of the pioneers. It was awesome. It was so cool to learn bout Andy's family history- it really makes me want to do mine. One day I will have time, and seeing as how I seem to be the only one in my family who actually wants to know- it is my responsibility. Here are some pics of the past weekend. And Have a happy 4th of July!!!!
Some of the elder relatives got up and shared stories about the ancestors.
A group shot of the family members on Andy's mom's side that came.

hmm...my husband has Danish Larsen ancestors...wonder if they're connected at all?
When you do have time for family history, you'll love it! Now that i actually get to have a life :o) my parents are actually in Scotland right now taking pictures of family sites that i found addresses for!
You look a wee bit tired in that last picture there. You're not a grad student are you? :)
I'm anxious to do more family history. My great grandpa immigrated from Greece, and Mike's ancestors are from Italy. One day I'll be in Greece and Italy doing what the parents of your other commenter are doing.
Looks like fun! that's a crazy story, its amazing what our ancestors did to get here. It makes me feel really lazy.
