I will have more from the 1963 Centennial program for Coon Rapids, Iowa, but for now, l am posting this interesting photo of my Mom and Dad and two (of four - other two were younger) brothers (I was off to college!) in costume as they took part in the centennial celebrations. It is the only time I know of that Dad every had a mustache... ! ;-)
Families are Forever! ;-)
This Blog focuses on Ancestor Stories, both the stories themselves about my family’s ancestors and discussions of where they come from and how to prepare and share them. These stories may be non-fiction or fiction – we will always tell which is which, of course. Also see my KINNICK blog and The HOMEPLACE Series Blog, left sidebar, scroll down.

I remember the centennial celebration well. Irene made prairie style dresses for me and Connie and Mom. I still have my dress and Connie's dress in my closet. I remember winning a cake at the cake walk. First time I remember winning anything.
