What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu?

Great fur baby pics. The situation with the jump rings sounds incredibly frustrating.

That's a lot of money for faulty products, wow. It's easier than ever these days to have happen, too. Hope your letter from SS is nothing big! Love the furry family.

My mother was from Brooklyn, NY. When she was 13, her father took her on vacation to visit relatives in Ohio. Her father was a heavy drinker and they were sitting on a porch drinking when he started to be mean to her. A 30-year-old man came to her defense and made her father stop. She went back to New York and told everyone that she had fallen in love with Pat and was going to go back to Ohio and marry him when she grew up.

They all laughed at her but she did not forget him. When she was 18, she heard that he had gone into the army for World War 2. He got his address and started writing to him. After the war, he came to New York to visit and they got engaged and then married. She moved to Ohio. I was their first child. He was 43 and she was 25. They decided to have a dozen children. They had a baby every year for ten years, missed a year, then had twins. I had 12 little brothers and sisters when I was 13. When my mom was 43, she thought she was in change of life, but it turned out to be my youngest sister, Peggy.

My father died at 80. My mother lived until 97.

Such an awesome story! I bet you have all sorts of stories from growing up with that many siblings. My grandpa had 14 and he was dab in the middle.

One brother is deceased. I have eleven best friends who will do anything for me and I will do anything for them.

Wow, that is wild!

That is one wild story.

You could write books with the stories from your and your family's past. Some determination from your mom to get what she wanted! Couldn't imagine life with that many kids in a house. I bet life was full.

It was wild and still can be. We are scattered but still get together a lot of talk and text often.

Great Story. Funny how that works.
