Yesterday, my maternal Grandmother, Hanna Gertrude Holm-Petersen Bedford (Gertie) was 100! Here she is with my Uncle John, and my Ma, Ingrid.

Who knew there were so many 100th birthday cards available? Here are a few of Gertie's cards...

...and here are a few more, and some family photos.

Gertie had a telegram from this woman in a yellow dress.

We decided that 100 candles would be a little too many to blow out...

...but Gertie did have a handsome wine waiter of her own :-)...

...and her two granddaughters.
