Browns

Well, we haven't posted much lately. Mom is travelling. Thankfully, she is on her way here as of tonight. We hope to do some posts together while she is here. Recently she sent me this picture over email. I enjoyed it so much that I thought I would put it on here. Pictured here are my great-grandmother, Martha Louise Brown, and her four children with their families. Great-Grandma had 3 daughters and a son. One of the daughters is my dad's mom. On the far right is Aunt Wilma. Next to her is my Grandma Bethel and her family. She had two sons and a little adopted daughter from Korea. My dad is the shorter of the two boys and he's standing in front of Great-Grandma Brown. The next over is Uncle Art and his family. Last, is Aunt Elna with her husband and newly adopted baby. My dad said he was 6 when this picture was taken and that the whole family was at the beach together. He says he remembers it very well. It must have been about 1956 then. My mom sent me the picture because she thought that my dad at age 6 looked so much like my third son, Benjamin, who is 6 right now. But when I got it, I just loved this group picture and since Grandma, Aunt Wilma and Aunt Elna read this blog, I thought it would be fun to post it here. It would be fun to know their comments about this picture sometime!
