Well ... it's time for another update. LOL ... nothing like a couple month hiatus! We haven't painted in a while now ... holidays, weather, etc. So ... the house still isn't 100% painted. Unfortunately it doesn't paint itself.
We spent a couple of weeks over Thanksgiving in Wellsburg at my parents' house, then came home for a couple of weeks and then went back for a week over Christmas. That's enough of that long trip for a while.
This week Terry and I are in Salt Lake City at the Family History Library doing genealogy. I think we've done all the easy stuff already because this week's finds are much harder and further between. I do think we've both managed to add a set or two of grandparents though.
Terry has a cousin (there's a 1st removed in there somewhere I think - but even I get lost at that sometimes, so we'll just call them cousins) and her family living here. Steve and Yvonne invited us to their house Sunday and we talked 'family history' for a couple of hours. Their sons and families came over later in the afternoon and we all enjoyed dinner together. We had an absolutely wonderful time.
Cortney, their daughter-in-law, is a member of the Temple Bell Choir and she invited us to come to their rehearsal last night. It was nothing short of wonderful and I do think it was the highlight of the week for me (sorry ancestors - but some other things just move in front of you sometimes). The director greeted us at the door and we had 4 chairs front and center! LOL ... never really expected that ... but it was the best seat in the house I'm sure. After we had listened to a couple of songs Ron gave us a tour of the Tabernacle and it's underground world. It was truly amazing. We had no idea that was going to happen and we were truly amazed and very, very thankful.
Well ... I'll try to be better at updates and what-not ... but for now it's off to the FHL for more investigation!
TTFN!
