Christensen Family Ancestors and Cousins

Here is a picture from the family reunion in 1984.

Left to right, Melvin (age 65), Marion (69), Eunice (55), Gordon (63), Alice, cousin Lori (back), Merlys (61), Omar (62), Cleo (59), and JoAnn (cousin Jeff's wife).   Jeff must have taken the picture of all the aunts and uncles.  My dad didn't go to that one.


Here's me getting a tractor ride on Uncle Melvin's lap in about 1957 or 1958.



Here we are MANY years later in June 2016 in Alexandria, Minnesota for a reunion of cousins and Aunt Eunice.  Cleo, Mom, and Ethyl couldn't come.
Left to right seated in front, Sandy Scobey, Aunt Eunice (Scobey) Pederson, Rhoda Smith.  Left to right standing, Michael Smith (Rhoda's husband), Duane Halvorson (Sandy's husband), Jeff Mo, Lori Mo, Linda Gray, me (front), Mark Scobey, Cindy Richard (front), Bonnie Scobey (Mark's wife), Karen Blilie, and Doug Blilie (Karen's husband). Nine of us 13 cousins came (underlined).  It was so wonderful!
