Ranum Family Reunion

We made a day trip to Wisconsin today for the Ranum family reunion (Jazzie's dad's side).  It was fun to see some extended family - aunts, uncles and cousins - that we don't get to see often and introduce Zander to some more extended family. He joins a very large family tree as the 99th great grandchild of my grandparents (both deceased) - the rest of the family stats for my grandparents include 13 children, 40 grandchildren, 99 great-grand children and 53 great-great grandchildren!!! I have always been fortunate to grow up in a large, but close family;  it was fun to share some memories of growing up together and look at some old photos of my grandparents, and it is always cool to see my dad with his brothers and sisters - they are all so much alike even after so many years!

Some more cuddle time with his grandparents



We all had fun despite the rainy weather - Abbie and Garrett hanging out with dad and Zeb

dad was joined by 7 of his siblings for the reunion - you can definitely see the family resemblance!
