Update and past genealogical Christmas projects

It has been a while since I have posted anything on this blog, but not because I have not been working on my genealogy! I just devoted about 2 weeks to going through all of the hints on ancestry.com, so that now I can keep up with them as they arrive!

I learned and found many new discoveries about family members as I went through all of the hints, and the best part was finding some family pictures that are posted on other people's trees! I posted numerous pictures on my tree over the past summer. I have also been in contact with new to me researchers and that is always a blessing! 

 I have decided on what my genealogical project for Christmas will be this year, but am not sharing here until after the holidays! In the past, I have done a couple of different stories of family, one from my Dad's side (the Adamson family) and another from my Mom's side (the Seg/Seeber family). Last year I did a recipe card that had a picture of my great-grandmother with her original recipe for Swedish bread that I sent out to family members. It was really fun to do. I would love to hear about ideas that others have done for projects. I don't know if my family appreciates the projects as much as I do, but it is fun!
