Inspirational Thoughts, Love and Laughter

I am now a Family History Consultant and on the Family History Committee for our ward. How awesome that my church calling is so perfectly lined up with my pursuing a college degree in Family History/Genealogy!

...What a blessing it will be to focus so intensely on learning and teaching about family history.
...What a motivation to set a good example by diligently working on my own family history.
...Where do I start?!...
...Here's a thought--My blog! A Day With Granny! I got it set up a while back but have done nothing with it. Well...now is the time! One of the best ways to get caught up is to not get further behind!

...What an inspiration members of my own family are to me!...

Joe (aka: Daddy, Grandpa Joe) Is such a support and inspiration to me! He is a wonderful example of dedicated church service. He has inspired me lately by writing a weekly email to our sons and their families. I am greatly blessed by his love and devotion to me and our family. Words cannot express how much I love and appreciate him!

As for capturing the moment and preserving memories: Jenae, one of my beautiful daughter-in-laws, has inspired me with her artistic scrap-booking skills, painting and crafting. Katie, another one of my beautiful daughter-in-laws has inspired me with her regular blog posts, fabulous photos and personal thoughts. Shawn has inspired me with his travel blog posts, music and so much more. General Authorities have inspired me by encouraging regular journal writing...

However, I have also heard it said, "Inspiration without action is wasted time." Or better yet, "Inspiration without perspiration is hallucination." As the years flit by, I realize I have no time to waste and my memories are becoming more vague.

My hope is to utilize this blog to share Inspirational Thoughts, Love and Laughter with my family and loved ones.

So, here goes!
