The marriage invitation for my Grandparents. Last week you saw the picture, and this week you get to see the invitation. Maybe I should have done that the other way around. Oops!

That was June of 2010 and this is July of 2016, so I think it’s okay to talk about it again. I didn’t go into the details of the book before, just posted a few pictures from it. I thought, since I’m doing a Genealogy Do-Over, that it would be a good time to actually catalog the people in the book. I had previously transcribed it into a Google Doc, but this time I wanted to do something different.
