Season 12 was like no other, and we are so grateful to each of the teams and their willingness to let viewers into their stories.

It's all about family, and we love this show!

Congratulations to Team Black for winning Season 12!

We hope you enjoy watching as the teams gather with us. The bond between them is so obvious!

Celebration Sunday-Genealogy Happy Dance! A Full October!

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 that you found the document, contacted a cousin with the family Bible, made a DNA connection, or found a new branch to your tree. The one that is met with glazed stares and eye rolls.

Celebration Sunday is a place to share your discoveries.

This weekly series enables everyone to tell about their Genealogy Happy Dance moment.

Share by scrolling

down and add your story to the comments section, or you may also put a link to a blog post telling about what had you dancing this week.

My Happy Dance Moment for this ~~week month:~~

October was filled with genealogy trips!

I spent the day presenting four lectures to the Wichita Genealogical Society.

Two presentations were given at the York, SC Library Workshop

And

I attended the APG PMC in Salt Lake City!

It is so much fun seeing friends and making new ones!

What's your Happy Dance Moment?

Please share, and let's celebrate together!

Share the fun! Click below to tweet this post!

Looking forward to reading about your Happy Dance moment!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

GenFriends Genealogy Chat Show: RR Season 12 Day 7: Unforeseen Events

The panel Melissa Barker, Jenny Hwran, Laura Hedgecock, and I get together to talk about the unforeseen events during the course of day 7 of Relative Race.

You never know what a day on the race will bring. Joy, sadness, and even injury.

Day 7 also had the risk of a team striking out.

Watch as we discuss how we felt about the unforeseen events for each of the teams.
