Julander Family Reunion & Little Texas Concert

My cousin Christine Stewart was so nice to plan a Julander family reunion in Heber. We had a pot luck lunch and were able to visit and catch up with the family that was able to come. It is always good to see those that we very seldom see. Everyone's lives are so crazy busy, that it is just so hard to get together. They also had rented a big blow up slide which they turned into a water slide. The kids had a blast playing on that. 

Afterwards we went over to my cousin Melvin's house to take a couple of photos of my Grandma Julander's paintings. There are a couple of different people that want prints of her paintings. She did such an amazing job painting. It was the one thing she loved to do. Melvin's house is gorgeous. They have only lived there a few months. You walk out their backyard and it is the mountain side. He owns part of the mountain. What a dream. I would love a place like that some day. 




I had heard on the radio a couple days earlier about Little Texas playing in Ogden, so thought it would be fun to stop there on the way home. It was a free concert and part of some Ogden Days event that was going on. After driving around and finally finding a parking spot about 1/2 mile away, we got to see the last little bit of their concert and then enjoyed the fireworks. The kids had fun. This was technically their first concert from a semi-famous band. I remember seeing Little Texas when I was a teenager. We didn't get home until pretty late though and we were all exhausted after a long day.
