Here we have some photographs of my stunning grandmother Roberta on her wedding day. My grandfather was quite a looker as well, if I may say so. The second photograph shows my grandmother and her father leaving their brownstone in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

I don't know why it's taken me so long to post these. I certainly wouldn't wish to hide them from you all!

Thanks for sharing these, Alexandra - I love them! The first one of your gran looking in the mirror is particularly romantic.

Makes me want to hunt out photos of my family now too - must get on the phone to my mother!
