Was helping Daddy Joe do some family history work on Saturday and got a bit caught up in my own.....such a cool buzz!!! Now I know why Mum actually enjoyed spending time at the family history library, it's not really just boring old microfiche like I've always thought.
I'd love to do it once a week with peace and quiet from my children as well. As it stands, I'll try and get some done while they're napping during the day instead.

So cool Mell. After you posted these on Facebook I logged onto mine (during sacrament lol). It's so interesting. I wish they'd all written journals. Reminded me to do mine tonight
