So, we're gathered here today to celebrate: June 4, 2019 marked six years of blogging my family's history.
If that's not cause to celebrate, I don't know what is!
I've learned an awful lot about my ancestors and the events that shaped their lives. I've also come to understand that every moment of their lives culminated in the circumstances that shaped my own life - certainly the foundations anyway.
I'm grateful that I get the opportunity to remember their history, reflect on its significance, and share it for posterity.
And I'm particularly grateful that I get to share it with you. So if you're looking for a good reason to splurge and celebrate today, let it be Family Sleuther's blogiversary!
Congratulations and happy 6th blogiversary! I enjoy all your sleuthing.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda! Here’s to another trip around the sun full of exciting genealogy finds.
DeleteHappy Blogiversary Michael!! You've done very well in 6 years. I always enjoy reading your posts.
ReplyDeleteI appreciate it, Laura. I am quite amazed at the many discoveries I’ve made in my own family’s history when I scroll through my archives. I’m game for another six years!
DeleteHappy 6th Blogiversary, Michael and Family Sleuther!! My husband's been wanting to opening a bottle of champagne, should I let him celebrate your blogiversary with me? LOL
ReplyDeleteI’m so glad you popped the cork and indulged an ocean away. Milestones are meant to be celebrated!
DeleteHappy Blogiversary! You started just a few months before I did. :)
ReplyDeleteWe’re in this together! How’re you celebrating six years?
DeleteBy continuing the journey! By the time my blogiversary rolls around in October, I think I will be almost "done" with my major family lines as far back as I can take them---in some cases only to my great-grandparents, in others to my sixth great-grandparents. So then I have to figure out where to devote my research. Do I go back and start over, looking with fresh eyes? Do I start doing my husband's family? Or do I do something else I haven't even thought about!?
ReplyDeleteOr maybe a little of all of the above! I'm looking forward to seeing how your blog unfolds after October, Amy.
DeleteThanks, Michael! Who knows? Things change all the time.
