Happy Valentine's Day!


Welcome to Couples Week on Kathy's Genealogy Blog! Over the next few days I will be posting photos of some of the couples on my family tree. I'm beginning today with a picture of my mom and dad, Ann (Skrobul) and Edwin Brady. This photo was taken in 1955. I like this photo because it shows them relaxing, rather than in a formal pose.

For a more formal couple's photo, I've included a picture of me and my husband, Patrick Blake, from our wedding.

Happy Valentine's Day!
