I'm published again.

See Desert Saints magazine for Dec 2008. I wrote an article on meaningful gift giving entitled "The Gift of Family History." I used some fun illustrations. One is a colorful pedigree chart beautifully illustrated and framed by my friend Mary, and the other illustration is a unique circular pedigree chart featured on my second cousin Jerusha's blog. Check them out and the ideas in the article for giving the gift of family history to your family. I hope to be able to launch into some of the projects mentioned when we get home in a few more days. 

What special gifts are you giving your family this holiday?

  1. What special gifts? Hmmmm... that's harder to answer than it should be. I am printing off copies of my blog posts, and my personal history to date, for each of the children. Other than that, Wayne and I are coming up to spend another week with them. I'll help Chandi and the boys with a couple of projects and Wayne's planning on helping Dustin with a a few things he wants to get done on his house. So... time and whatever talent or brawn we have left to share would be the unwrapped packages that we'll bring up for Christmas. We did make some purchases this year that I'm excited to give to a couple of the kids. Really neat stuff!!!

  3. Congrats Lin..You are a very accomplished...special gifts.. This year with money in shorter supply, it will be more of a challenge. I always try to make something or have something made that is sentimental for my family..last year I took some old photos and made them into a book. This year I may not get to be very clever as I am running short on time and energy...
