This is my dear great grandmother; she was a very upright Norwegian lady.

My Beautiful Great Grandmother

AND CHECK THIS OUT...


These are my GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDPARENTS on her side of the family. Of course, these are only 2 of the 524,288 great (+) grandparents I (and all of us) have dating back 18 generations of our 'greats' (not including myself, my parents, and my non-great grandparents; I'm the 21st generation).


YEAH, THAT GOES BACK OVER 700 YEARS... I'M FREAKING OUT!

Everyone dreams of immortality… but my God can you possibly fathom the Family Reunion if immortality was real! I couldn’t afford to rent Michigan Stadium, Beaver Stadium, Ohio Stadium, Kyle Field, Tiger Stadium, and Texas Memorial Stadium, let alone the satellite link and A/V equipment to connect everyone! Then, all the damn aunts, uncles, cousins, and in-laws - I'd need another 50 football stadiums!


All I can say is when I get to heaven, the almighty better have one ginormous, and I mean mammoth, bar, because it's going to take ETERNITY for me to meet and catch up with everyone!
