On Sunday, November 8, 2009, Ben's family hosted a brunch for friends and family at The Library at the Melrose Hotel in honor of Ben's grandmother, Rose, who turned 100 a month before the wedding.  It was so nice to have so many out of town relatives there to celebrate and it was a very special day for the entire family.

The hotel did a wonderful job with the brunch and the food was delicious.  Ben and I headed for the buffet as soon as we got there!

This beautiful cake was from A&J Bakery in Dallas, near the hotel.

There was a book chronicling Rose's life as well as a recent picture of her for the guests to sign.
