I ask bc I think that, if Hyrum had seen Helen, he might have wanted to go for the third wife. I think she would have kicked his butt, tho. She has that "don't even think about it" look. which, come to think of it, might have been an asset in her line of work :)Melanie Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11044681837284196286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-83563176976090021462008-01-18T23:53:00.000-09:002008-01-18T23:53:00.000-09:00Fabulous post.

No, I have no polygamists in my family tree (that I know of) but I dated the nephew of the semi-famous polygamist, Tom Green (he was the family's closet skeleton). I had to laugh at your hunky references to the young men in the photos. My grandpa finally told all us grand-daughters to stop talking about how "hot" he is in his war photos. Sorry, Gramps, but you were smokin' hot!Ice Creamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10720267761985766740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-59081855137369050192008-01-17T12:55:00.000-09:002008-01-17T12:55:00.000-09:00Hi Michelle!This is one of the all time most creat...Hi Michelle!<BR/><BR/>This is one of the all time most creative topics for a blog post that I've read.
