Personal Notes:
My mom was well known for her old molasses cookie recipe.
They are really good!
The picture is of her on her honeymoon.
The other picture is of my dad. My parents had 8 children and 7 survived.
We had wonderful parents that raised us all well.
The other picture is of a family reunion of my mother's side of family. Still not everyone was there.
Her mother had 15 children and 12 that survived.
My dad’s parents had 9 children.
So we had a lot of family and a lot of cousins!
❤️❤️❤️
