Happy 101st Grandma and Grandpa!!!!

In honor of grandma and grandpa's 101st anniversary, August 26, 2008, I have organized all the pictures that I have of them in this online album to share with cousins and grand-cousins and cousins-in-law and step cousins! And do not forget it is Grandpa Josh's birthday, which occurs annually on the very same day. (He will only be 123 years old but seems nowhere near it!) Somewhere I know they are celebrating! And if the dearly departed have internet access I hope these two "larger than life" and memorable grandparents that I love can log on and enjoy them also.

Don't ever forget this historical flashback....

It was on that most eventful** day, August 26th 1907, when the local police arrived at the wedding reception intent on breaking up the innocent little social gathering. "Are you serving these minors alcohol, Mr. Ogden?" one of them asked the young bridegroom. "Not at all" he replied, "As even you can see they are doing just fine serving themselves."

**editors note: (We all must admit eventfulness, for where would WE be if not for this most blissful union of Ogden and Ramsay??)

So here is the album to enjoy. You can even download the pictures onto your computer if you got enough computer moxey. (Technical questions should be directed to Patrick as usual). Send me any photos that you have and I will be delighted to add them. And have fun serving yourself!

I really would like to see a comment or two regarding your thoughts or even memories. It helps to know that someone is seeing this!

Congratulations on a job well done - a very nice tribute to your grandparents. I especially liked the little touch of flavor you added (the story at the beginning). Teri
