Have you ever thought about how cool it would be to see a documentary about your great grandparents? We live in a time where it is easier than ever before to tell future generations in our own words who we are, what we think, how we lived, and what our values are.
Family history inspires woman's tale: "Ladalia Postell said she was so impressed by stories about her white great-grandmother facing up to racism by marrying a black man that she wrote a book about the couple and the people she imagined lived in their home over the years. "

If you're into scrapbooking, family photography, family videos, or genealogy, this blog is a must-read for you. Proud grandparents to four wonderful boys, we truly believe there's nothing more important than celebrating the connections that bind us together. Most folks are aware of their parents' values but know less about their grandparents and almost nothing about their great grandparents, who they were, what their lives were like and what was important to them. That's sad because who they were helped to define who we are. But they left behind few if any photo albums, letters, and of course no audio or video recordings. So we've started a new tradition in our family of preserving our family history. The importance of preserving memories is also reflected in our professional lives. As a video editor/producer, I routinely work with priceless memories captured on home video. And as a Creative Memories Consultant, Susan helps her clients to preserve photographs and memories in creative and fun ways.
