One thing I did right in 2014 was keep good records. One Sunday as I sat through a church meeting as they were talking about family history and I realized I may not be able to do research and family search like that right now but I can keep my own family history and teach my kids to do the same. So along with the blog history I have had the kids sit down every Sunday and do a weekly journal along with a picture. We started the beginning of June and I believe we only missed 1 week. It is a treasure!!
Aside from that my sister came up with a brilliant idea to start a family newsletter with my parents and siblings to send to my grandma and grandpa who have permanently moved to Utah and developed Alzheimer's disease. Each month Heidi and I take turns making the family newsletter which started in April and continued every month. I finished us off in December. This is what they are like though with a page for each family.
It makes me feel at ease that we are doing a great deal of family history work right here. I am thankful for my family and for the gospel which unites us with common purpose.
