History

Another resolution of mine this year is to work on our Family History.  Did they have to dumb it down (from Genealogy) for the recent generation?  That was my favorite song in primary for quite a while.
Anyway, our Stake Presidency has challenged us to have 5 generations recorded, and all our temple work done for those that can be done, by our September Stake Conference.  We are to bring it to the conference so the President can put it in a binder and present it to our Area Presidency.  I don't know if we are requesting a temple or what exactly is going on.
It is a good motivator for us anyway.  I was working on the New.FamilySearch site last year and then Thanksgiving and Christmas derailed me.
So I will probably be asking my extended family, especially the elders out there, for information and help along the way.  It is good that I have a clear goal and a deadline.  I work better under pressure.
We had a nice short Family Home Evening last night.  I introduced the family blog, we watched a Mormon Message from YouTube and Benjamin provided us each with "Love One Another" posters he hand drew and we had to color them in.
Today Ben and Naomee are both sick in two differing ways (yuck), so steer clear.
Tonight the Young Men are playing basketball, which sounds like a cop-out, cliche YM activity, but we actually haven't played basketball on mutual night for about a year.  Then the Men's b-ball team is going to practice, so I will probably be supremely sore tomorrow.
Kira promised to show me how to post pictures to the blog this weekend, so watch out for them in the future!
