You know the dance. You know you've done it. The one every researcher does after finding something new. The one where you want to jump up and down and shout to everyone around that you found the document, contacted a cousin who has the family Bible, made a DNA connection, or found a whole new branch to your tree. The one that is met with glazed stares and eye rolls.
My Happy Dance Moment for this week:
Happy Dance moments come as we make special memories with family as well as make ancestor discoveries.
This week, I was able to take my mom to a yearly lights celebration we have in our town. With the death of my father two years ago and her recent health problems, we haven't been able to do too much together. It has been hard for her to get out of the house. But, this week, we went to "Nights of a Thousand Candles" an annual Christmas tradition where we live. It's been years since she has gone.
Not only did we convince her to go with us, but we had a wonderfully warm night to enjoy the light displays and listen to the bands play. We also enjoyed a fun dinner together!
My Happy Dance moment this week?
Spending time with my mom and making special memories.
Share your discovery!
Let the dancing commence!
Looking forward to reading about your Happy Dance moment!
