On Feb 25th, 1956 my wife and I were married. We'd dated for 2 -1//2 years while I was in the service.
I was an only child and my wife had one sister. From that rather small start, we managed to end up with 4 kids, 12 grandkids, and 12 great grands along with assorted husband/wife in-laws. This whole crowd lives within 100 mile radius with the exception of one grandson and wife who are about 3000 miles away on the "other" coast.
I suppose we've only added to the "population overgrowth" but as we we've aged, it's been a wonderful process, surrounded by this crowd of loved ones, especially as we have no "outsider members" who don't get along with the rest.
