Family History- "I am doing it" (Not really)

This is me and my kitten, The story goes : I was being potty trained and thought the kitten would also like to use the toilet so once I put her in the toilet I began to pile the toilet paper on top of her and flush. Luckily I was caught in the act and the kitten was saved.

Fun stories like this are lost if they do not get written down somewhere and while I can't imagine anyone caring to much about my almost dead kitten, I would actually like to hear some simple everyday stories about the ancestors I have from a hundred years ago our so.

Since only 40 years have passed since the picture above and the picture below, lots of simple and amazing adventures have happened.

Our upcoming move to Italy has my Family history fanatic sister in a tizzy, and as we spent spring break together we had many conversations about the research she could do on our family history in the homeland of a good chunk of our family.

Upon returning from spending time with her, we had a in-depth leon on the importance of doing our family history work. I was reassured that keeping my blog was a good way of documenting our current history.
I would also like credit for taking video and recently having it converted to digital for preservation purposes.

One thing in our lesson on Sunday was about keeping the branches - extended family  info current as well. I know as my kids grow our little trunk of the tree will start to sprout branches, so we are starting a new tradition on this blog.

On the month of your birthday you will get to post about your year. Small adventures and daily trials, or big exciting things. We will start this with Paige (Her birthday is next) and everyone who is born or married in will get to do it as well!

I am also going to try to do some back personal family history by opening one of our older photo albums and ransoming picking a page. Scanning it in and telling you a bit about it (Since this blog is not that old)

I am going to attempt it as a "Flash Back Friday" or a "Family History" Friday, but I am not guaranteeing every Friday- I have a foreign language to learn....
