Kreativ Blogger Award- Paying It Forward


I want to thank Thomas at GeneaBloggers and Julie at Banjos and Babydolls  for recognizing my blog with the Kreativ Blogger award earlier this week. The online genealogy family has been very gracious in welcoming me into the fold. So in keeping with the rules here are 7 things you may not know about me and my picks for the Kreativ Blogger award.

Seven Things You May Not Know About Me

I live in Southern Ontario, Canada with my husband of 22 years and two daughters age 18 and 14.

Besides my love of genealogy and writing, my other passions include cooking and reading.

I am currently writing a family history book with my cousin, it has been 3 years in the making, it will be two hundred pages long and will be published in time for the 2010 Kowalsky Family Reunion.

One year ago, I never read a blog let along wrote one, now I read a dozen or so daily.

In my past life I was a restaurant manager, I retired 5 years ago to be a stay at home Mom. Best decision I ever made.

I currently write magazine articles for Family Chronicle, Discovering Family History and Internet Genealogy.

My genealogy goal is to travel to my ancestors villages in Ireland, Germany, Poland and France.

My Kreativ Blogger Picks

I am only listing five picks since I noticed many of my regular blog reads have already received this award this week, so I will spread the love around.
