This last Saturday we celebrated Aunt Jeanette Janson's 90th birthday. It was an open house at the Pierz Ballroom (the Funhouse 😊) and a ton of people came to wish her a HBD. She taught school in the area for 42 years, so there were former students and lots of neighbors, friends and family. It was great.Here are some old and new pics of the last 90 years...
(Thanks to family Facebook pages for most of em).
This photo was taken at the party--most of my wonderful family and two of my sisters. Can you pick out Kathy, Marion and me? ☺
AJs crown was perfect on her, don't you think?
(Just a side note: remember how, at weddings when we were kids, the whole hall would be hazy with cigarette smoke? Well, at the party on Saturday, a friend of the family was telling a joke and needed cellophane for the punch line. He asked the smokers in the crowd to bring a pack to the stage--and NO ONE had cigs! (Or, no one wanted to admit it) but even 10 years ago, there would have been plenty of packs to choose from...now, not even one. Truly remarkable!)
