Introduction - (By Lori)

This blog is a family blog where we will have the chance to share stories, pictures, recipes, etc.  I have always wanted to do a family history, but considering that Dee Dee's mother was born in 1912, the idea of doing the traditional history, in chronological order, with one author was so overwhelming that I never even tried.  That fear and trepidation is what led to the creation of this blog.  All of our family members will be able to contribute by either creating the posts or commenting on them.  It may be a story from our past or a current event that we want to share.  At the end of each year, we will use a "blog-to-book" service to publish a printed book of memories posted that year for those members who want one.  Even though the history will not be in order, at least there will be stories and such that will actually get recorded to share with those who may some day be interested in where they came from and why we are the way that we are!
