Jodi & Anecia Aubree recently did a search for trivia about redheads. Did you know that less than 4% of the world's population is naturally redheaded? And in the U.S. only 2% of the population is redheaded! And a redhead with green eyes is even more rare. Talk about a minority! Red hair is considered to be a genetic mutation. Other interesting trivia: Bees are thought to sting redheads more often. Red heads are prone to industrial deafness. A study in 2002 found that redheads are harder to sedate requiring 20% more anesthesia. A redheaded woman is more likely to hemorage during childbirth. And last but not least, in Denmark it is an honor to have a redheaded child. Well at this party we were pretty honored with 3 nieces, a son, a daughter-in-law, a granddaughter & a daughter all with red hair. My hair use to be red now more gray than anything. I am just grateful to have more hair than my paternal grandmother did. You could curl her whole head of hair with about 12 pin curls!

their long time neighbors the Wickhams.
On Sunday, September 14th we had Grandpa Gleed's 80th birthday party. With the exception of three grandkids (& their families) everyone came over to wish Grandpa a happy birthday and express their love.
