Datwyler Reunion July 15-17, 2010




We attended the Datwyler family reunion on the East Side of Bear Lake at the Idaho State Campground. Bryan and family were in charge this year. We had a great time although Andrew was our only child that could attend this year. The food was great as always, the weather was nice and the company was even better. We went back to Logan Saturday night and showered, did a little wash and then left the next morning for the Flake reunion in Oregon/Washington.

Orem Reception July 10, 2010

My niece, C'Anne came from Vernal and decorated a second cake so we could have it in the garden gazebo.


Floretta Hatton Flake and Joan Christiansen Datwyler's dresses.

We gathered wedding dresses from our mothers and grandmothers to display at the reception. My dress is on the far left, above with the five dresses. It was originally my sister, Julie's but I had the sleeves remodeled and wore it on my wedding day on July 28, 1982. The next dress was worn by Floretta Flake, Dan's mother when she married Darrell in the SLC temple. The ceremony was performed by Spencer W. Kimball. She also shared the dress with her sister. My mother, Joan, shared her dress with her sister-in-law, Pauline Christiansen. We showed that dress at the St. George reception.

A second wedding reception was held in Orem, Utah at the home of Carlton's grandparents, Dave and Sally Taylor. The yard is beautifully landscaped and despite a quick afternoon rain shower, the evening was beautiful and filled with family, friends and a festive spirit. It was great to mingle with relatives and friends from Northern Utah and many of the Taylor's ward family came and showed support for the wedded couple.
