Our Forever Family

On my trip to Salt Lake last week, I spent time in the Family History Library. Having way to much fun. I confirmed one of the Hansen babies, one more to go. I wasn't able to confirm things about our ancestor Elizabeth Southworth/Southwick. But if the genealogists notes are correct......we have a connection to the Salem Witch trials. Our David Towne line goes to William Towne and Joanna Blessing who came from Norfolk England in 1640, to Salem Mass. They later settled in Topsfield, Mass. Joanna and William had 8 children. Two of the daughters were burned at the stake, Rebeca July 1692, and Mary Sept 1692. Sarah was accused. Mrs. Good was the accuser. They were all later exonerated. The youngest of the eight children was a boy named Joseph. He was our ancestor. More interesting things to come.

Happy Halloween.

Say Cheese

For those who may not recognize us (with out the smiley faces in an earlier blog) We start with Brad and Katie Anderson, Wes is in the back with Emily in front of him. The old grey haired lady is me. Sara is on Andys shoulders, and Nora in front of us. Holly and Sam Rosener are the parents of the worlds cutest grandchildren.

I am not sure what happened as to why the pictures are the way they are.....but aren't they the cutest kids you have ever seen?

I love being grandma!

Being mom isn't to bad either.

We had so much fun on this photo shoot. I can't believe how hard it is to get the family together to get a picture. We will have a Christmas card with picture this year! Yeah

Sara is 18 months old and Nora just turned 4.
