Some of my favorite results from this weekend:
My grandmother is second in from the left.
My great grandparents.
We never did find out who these two were, but isn’t the picture stunning!
What a weekend we had. Five of my moms six remaining aunts and uncles showed up to talk with us and look at pictures. I think only one of them was under 90. Aunt Elmira, who hosted the event, made us lunch complete with homemade doughnuts, buns, and egg salad. I hope I’m that spunky when I’m 94!
I think my favorite part of the whole day was when she explained to me that now a days 94 really isn’t that old. I’m so glad we went and she was so kind to share all her pictures with us:)
On other news, if you haven’t stopped by this lovely lady’s blog yet, you should. Today is her birthday and she is doing a birthday give away! She was one of the very first bloggy friends I made a few years back when I started on this adventure. I think all the time how it lights up my day to stop around to all my sweet bloggy friends’ sites and see how their days are going. Chelle’s site will now doubt light up your day. I’m sure you will become a frequent visitor like the rest of us after just one peak! Enjoy and HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHELLE!

Oh, how I love old pictures…and when they are of one’s own ancestors then that is even better.
Thank you for sharing.
