Family History Library Field Trip
Highlights:
- Elder Reed was so fun in explaining the importance of family research to us and having us play a game.
- Our group was the first group he'd taught where everyone had done family research before
- His brain "tingled" at the audible gasp when he showed them the website rootsmapper.com
- He challenged everyone to add a memory from a grandparent or great-grandparent
- Sis. Price shared with us some sacred experiences she has had in doing family research and motivated us to help our ancestors - millions are looking to us
- Researching our ancestors - some youth found a common island from which several of them had ancestors, Jordan showed us pictures of his great-grandfather? who was good friends with Harry Truman, and missionaries helped us navigate the site.
- Great sale on posters at the Church History Museum
- Jordan proposed to a car
Rachel also got nicknamed "Strike" for numerous reasons, and my fiancee car drove off with another guy... :'(
