lovely weekend with the family

The Olson family returned from a wonderful 50th wedding anniversary celebration with Clarence and Vivian Blomgren.

add from Observer Advocate


Festivities started at about 2:30pm on Saturday, July 9th at Voss Park near Butterfield, Minnesota.  Potluck, visiting, walking around the great lake path, playing, watching an enormous tree branch crack off the canopy above us, looking at photos from C&V's wedding 50 years prior and E&R's wedding 58 years prior, fireflies and a bonfire with s'mores was the perfect way to celebrate Clarence and Vivian's union.

with 14 of 16 grandchildren

with five of five children Karen, Kyle, Kent, Kurt and Cory


On Sunday, all the Blomgren kids went to First Lutheran Church and we filled up the sanctuary.  I took a photo of Mom and Dad at the front of the church as they had been in 1961.
50 years and 2 days since C&V took their vows at same location


Love you all!
