A Michigan couple are not only celebrating their 68th wedding anniversary in May, but they are also welcoming their 101st grandchild the same month.

Shirley and Donald Keena married in 1948, and had 11 children in over 13 years. Those 11 children went on to have their own children and so forth. The large brood includes 32 grandchildren, 57 great-grandchildren and 11 great-great-grandchildren. The 101st is expected in May.

Shirley and Donald Keena were featured on ABCNews.com along with photos of some of their grandkids. The couple are happy to boast about the size of their family, although they admit they can’t host a family reunion in their home.

Believe it or not, the Keena’s are not the record holders for most grandchildren. A couple (who are now deceased) in the U.K. hold that record with 130 plus grandchildren.
