A Maine woman has turned 103 and she got to celebrate with her family -- all six generations of it.

Irene Chouinard (SCHWINN'-ard), of Lewiston, has six children, 25 grandchildren, 49 great-grandchildren, 38 great-great-grandchildren and one great-great-great-grandson.

The Sun Journal reports that Chouinard told the gathering: "If this is a dream, I don't ever want to wake up."
