Congratulations to your parents on their birthdays and to you as well; also Happy Anniversary to them. My in-laws were somewhat like that. My Mother-in-law had a birthday on May 13, my Father-in-law's was May 16 and their wedding anniversary was May 16. Get as much history as you can from them; that way it can be passed down.linda mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203742811516417039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-32597574690702111752012-10-10T07:32:36.190-05:002012-10-10T07:32:36.190-05:00What a wonderful tradition.

Time has healed my pain, and I should start thinking about getting together again!!! Thanks for the wonderful reminder. I'm sure you had a great lunch with your cousins, and catching up on all the family stuff that happened through out the past year!!

I am now the "official oldest" in my immediate family. I wish I had listened more carefully to the family stories. It is interesting that my sisters, brother and I have different versions of many of the stories, even some of those we were part of.Pauline Persinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16774940797880184764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-13886426363707126822012-10-10T06:58:58.906-05:002012-10-10T06:58:58.906-05:00With your interest in family history take every op...With your interest in family history take every opportunity to ask you dad....<br /><br />I regret now that I didn't do that as my interest in family history came just recently...:(troutbirderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087811292280881959noreply@blogger.com
