True Rock Erickson was born August 13th to Bevan and Camille Erickson. He weighed 7lbs 7ounces (our smallest yet). He's quiet and smart.

Camille came up with the name True and I finally settled. "Rock" his Camille's maiden name.

Still in Logan, Utah. Camille Pregnant with 4th boy (True). I'm working in Salt Lake but hating the commute and whole family not wanting to move.

Can't wait for Camille to feel better, and to get back to being as active as we'd normally want. Nonetheless, we still go to Bear Lake, river rafting, or tubing just about every weekend, so the summer hasn't been that bad.

Hopefully we'll get to stay here, build a house up behind Hyrum Lake and raise our sons to be doctors so I can retire early.

Well, Boman is growing up to be a fat, tall baby. He's just over 28 inches and 20 pounds which puts him over the 90th percentile for each. He fusses a lot and we had a very tough airplane trip to New Hampshire from Missouri.

Julie is still #1 in her class with a 4.0 and scheduled to graduate with her second BS (BSN) in May. We'll work for 1 year in critical care nursing before going back to do the Masters in Nurse Anesthesia. We've whittled it down to about 3.5 years left.

A few videos are up of my little family and extended. Here's a few:

- Slideshow of some photos

- Photos of my family, amy's family, and emily's family
- Some other ones that may or may not be of any interest

Just thought the family should know that as of July 21st I...Meghan Meaker, became Meghan Young. I married a very cute and handsom Ashton Young in the SLC temple. The wedding was sooooo fun and beautiful. It really meant alot to us that our family came, even from long distances to be there. I love you all soooooo dang much.

Megan delivered our second girl on Monday April 10, 2006. She came into this world at 9:51 am weighing in at 7lbs 3oz. She was 20.5 inches long. We decided to name her Dottie. It's not short for anything, just Dottie. Both Mom and Dottie are doing great. Little Emma loves taking care of her "baby sister" and is a real help (when she isn't getting into everything).

Just thought that we'd let all y'all know that we'll be having a girl due the 19th of April. Seems like I'm destined to be a lone man among women.
Jordy, Megan and Emma

Dear Family: I reserved the Lodge for the week of July 3, 2006 thru July 7. That is a Monday thru Saturday. During those days we will have all 15 cabins. On July 8, I reserved 8 cabins. Why did I make the reservations now? I wanted to hold the dates as they were the only reasonable dates still available for next summer which could accomodate a crowd our size.

I have another candidate for our July 2006 Erickson/Wilson/etc Family Reunion. Rocky Mountain Lodge on the upper end of the Conejos River(1 mile North of Spectacle Lake) is a great site and less expensive than Pagosa Springs. I am told we can get 250 to 350 people in there with ease and comfort. And the cost is reasonable (from what I know now). The information provided here and below is from Bud Johnson who goes back to this campground for his family reunion every two or three years. For those who don't know, Bud Johnson as an 18 year old, drove a large truck from Colo to California with us in 1954 when our families moved out of the San Luis Valley to Golden California.

Tyler claims to have found the chapel where Lawrence James Erickson married Dorothy Fern Wilson on August 18th, 1940.

Tyler picked up a couple photos while on business in New Mexico. He stopped in Taos and found these "old-timey" photos of what he claims to be the actual chapel. If anyone has more details, please comment below. See photos.
