Some pictures look better when they are small
But still not great...
I tried to post these photos to the Myfamily.com site and they were just too blurry. I love the top photo. It is of Grammy and Papa in the back and Mary and her husband Joe White in the front. I don't know where the original is - these are from the Dubay reunion book - but I'll keep trying to get a better image. This is the picture that made me think that Billy looks like our grandfather, but it's hard to tell from this.
This bottom one is of the Dubay family at the 50th wedding anniversary party of Charles and Sophie. They are:
Back: Jim, Bill, George, Gene and Leo
Middle: Chick and Jeannette
Front: Lil, Sophie, Charles, Hilda
This would have been in 1939 and Grammy would have been about 40, and Aunt Jeannette about 27.
I guess I will still post some things to this blog, but I'm putting other things at the Myfamily.com site. Toby said he didn't get the first invitation that I sent, so I've resent them to everyone that I haven't heard from. Hope you get a chance to check it out soon and let me know if you need help with it.

Here's a pic of me with my sorority friends that I saw last weekend, just to add something new and colorful to this post. It was great to see them and interesting to see how the personality traits that were just developing in college have flourished since then - good and bad.
Well, I guess that's it for now. The rainy day predicted turned out to be pretty nice and I think I might take advantage of it to spend some time out on the deck.
Hope to hear from you all soon.
Love, Betsy

Wow!
I had about given up on this site and was thrilled when you let me know about the new one. Today I accidentally clicked on this one and was surprised to see that I missed a couple of postings.
As always I've been very busy. Every spare minute has been painting my house.
I do like the new site but I'm still working on how to navigate it. I have come into some very old slides both from Heidi and from mom. I'm researching ways to get them into the computer as well as turned into photos.
Hey, Dana
Yes, since not many have signed into the new site yet, I decided to keep this going at least for a while. I know it's a little more complicated, but I've been able to put some fun stuff on there. If you haven't yet, check out the videos that I added and if you look under discussions, you can see that I've added a few things in the news and family history columns. Just click on any of the entries to open it up. You can either comment there or start your own posting under any of those headings. I also put a small family tree in the file category. It is a document that you download and it will open it in word. I'm going to try the SnapGenie this weekend. It makes a slide show with commentary. I may try something with pictures of all the family gravestones. Sounds kind of morbid, but with Halloween coming, it may be just right.
House painting sounds like a big job. We've got some big jobs we should get to around our house, but I'm having too much fun doing this stuff.
I can't wait to see your slides. I'm sure you'll figure something out.
