Wouldn’t this make you laugh out loud??
When our youngest grandson was quite a bit younger, our son snapped this picture of Ellis clowning around. He knew he was funny ~ you can see that in his eyes!
Want to see a cute little guy?
He came to visit today! and he came compliments of Terry Thornton as a thank you for participating in the “Getting to Know You” Challenge.” Ain’t he cute? Genea-Blogger Gnome As much as I like the little guy, I realize he’s only here for a visit and then he’s on to the next blog. Well,…
Getting to Know me, Getting to know Linda in Lancaster, PA
My father appointed me the job as Family Historian upon his death. He didn’t know it, but he did. I wrote about that in one of my blogs . I accepted the assignment willingly and have never looked back with regret! The assignment gave me a new appreciation for my family, both living and formerly…
These Just Tickle my Funny Bone!
On my trip to California in June to visit family, I wanted a family group picture of each family (I have two children) and these were my favorites out of the group. I love the laughter and lightness in each picture, and I smile each time I see both of these pictures. I love this…

I’m on a mission! I found some new Church Records!
Church records are probably my favorite documents. Even though a lot of the information is not quite accurate, they are full of clues and fun to read! I love Baptismal records that indicate “supposed father.” I love marriage records that indicate one party (or both) were widowed and I love death records that give the…
We Lost a Member of the Family Today
Rest in Peace, Katrinka Dinka Do. We will miss you. She was just a couple of months old when she joined these empty nesters. We carried her home, with nary a sound from her in the hour’s journey. She took to her new home and we took to her. Her name had already been decided…
It’s verified! I’ve got a heart!
Wow! What an honor! My new heart came from Becky Wiseman, and I really enjoy her blog! Check out her blog Kinexxions, and I’m sure you will, too. Of course, like things that always seem too good to be true, my new heart doesn’t come without strings attached. The strings, as I understand them are…
Dad would have been 93 this month
and not a day goes by that I do not think about him. He was so important in my life. Dad’s life lives all around me. Things that were Dad are in my home. Things he possessed, things he created, things he collected; I have a lot of them and I see them daily. I…
