Who's Yo Daddy???




So I got sucked into that show on NBC called Who Do You Think You Are? It was really quite interesting and I have always been interested in family history. So, of course, that is my current obsession. I joined Ancestry.com and started working on my family tree. It is really neat because you can find your relatives and sometimes other people on there will have added pictures and stories that you haven't seen or heard before. And you can upload your own and share them with whomever you wish.











I have a lot of good information from my grandparents on my mother's side. They are both still living and have done their own research in the past. Plus, they love to go through pictures and tell me stories about things they remember.













My dad's side of the family it another story. Both of my grandparents on that side are deceased and since my dad passed away, I only have his sister and brother to get information from. Plus they both live out of town. However, I am grateful to have them and I am hoping to get to spend some nice chunks of time with them in the near future to pick their brains. I am also hoping that there are some pictures somewhere...but we will just have to wait and see.














I should be studying for the CPA exam, but I keep thinking of things that I "just have to do first". But, as soon as I get done with it (November hopefully), I am planning to research even more.














The pictures are all from my Grandmother on my mom's side of the family. They make me smile.
