Family Search!





If you have not yet had a chance to check out www.thenewfamilysearch.org you might want to give it a whirl!

I took a genealogy class at BYU and all it did was confuse me into oblivion. This new web site is so much fun - along with the pile of information that Dad and Ramona gave me a few years ago, I feel like I am in heaven! I am getting to take lots of mom's painstaking research (love her handwriting) and put it into this site, some things are matching up so well that it takes mom's ancestry farther than I had anticipated.

I don't know much about this work, only that it is wonderful, addictive, and I want to know more. This week will be the first time that I have ever taken my own names to the temple. For years, we have had many cards from Bob's sister and brother in law, but there is just a different feeling here. From what I can tell, Lottie Elizabeth Surratt was never sealed to her parents?
Sorry - just a LITTLE excited here!!!!!!!

Missionary Work Goes ON!!!!!!!

Who says missionary work is dead in Medina, NY! Its not! No way!!!!! This sign was made by Tim Kaiser who is so cute, and Nick kaiser's little brother. Who also by the way, has NO intention of joining the church (as far as he knows. . .I would say the sign says something else in a froidian way :) ) I did notice he left himself a VERY wide comfort zone since I don't think anyone every has scored that many points in a game.

So, this was the wonderful, subtle and demure way that the guys displayed the sign! I LOVED this! Missionary work! Done by a non member!!!! Heck YES!!!! These buys are all some of the sweetest and funnest in the school. I think the sign really was awesome for Levi's spirit too. I told Tim I get the sign at the end of the season. I will hang it in Levi's room, but first Tim wants to take it to every game!!!! YEA!!!!
