This one will be basic...we want to make sure that everyone can access this blog and get use to the new method of keeping our family connected. All you need is the link. It will work just as a website. You can check in as often as you like but there will be a general email to go out letting everyone know when a new blog has been posted. I would suggest saving it as a bookmark so it can be easily accessed. If you have any questions, or if there are any problems viewing the blog, or if there is something that you don't understand please email us at: parkerproclaimer@yahoo.com
Now...on with the juicy stuff!!
June is the month that the Parkers get together for their reunion. This year it took place in Pine Mountain. We all had a WONDERFUL time. The last total that Vicky gave out was 71 in attendance. Adventures to the Safari, Callaway Gardens, and FDR's Little Whitehouse were some of the hot spots visited by many members of the family. The pool was also a favorite attraction. Many thanks goes out to Vicky for coordinating, organizing, and even attempting to get this family together.
Jennifer gave birth to Emma Parker Daughtry on June 7th. She weighed 7lbs 10oz. She is beautiful...just like her mama. Crissy also gave birth on May 29th to Joby Lane McCannon. He weighed 9lbs 5oz. All mothers and babies are doing fine! Kerri got married May 31st to Pats next door neighbor, Wade. He has a son Kaleigh's age. Kasey Coody graduated from high school. Tonya and Scott threw her a surprise party and several members of the family came. It was a great time and Kasey was very surprised!!
Next years reunion will be in Gatlinburg, TN. Vicky already has the info ready and is already taking deposits. There are several cabins to choose from and it will be on a first come-first pay basis as to who gets what cabin and what room. She is asking for $100 up front. We will be getting the website link sent out in the next few days so you can view the cabins and all of the goodies that they offer.
Several family members are wanting to head up there for longer then the Friday-Sunday that has already been priced out. If there are any of you that are wanting to do the same thing PLEASE let Vicky know or email the Proclaimer staff. It would be cheaper if we had more people wanting to do the same thing.
This is all for now peeps! As before-an email will be sent requesting your news and any pictures you want published. For the disclaimer...please overlook any grammar issues. If any of you saw the way Vicky spelled karaoke (kerioky) then you would understand what we are working with here!!! HA HAAA!
Love and Blessings~
The Parker Proclaimer Staff
