Connecting The Dots

There is alot of "Dots" that need to be connected in our Lauenstein/Edmunds family, so we started this blog to help connect some  of "Our Dots." 

We want to keep in touch, share ideas, memories and families. Just little things you remember about mom and dad,  about you/us growing up, funny or sad things.  Anything that will connected us, and keep us connected so that we can pass these stories on to our kids and grandkids. 

Mom was pretty good about telling us some of her stories when she was growing up.  I don't know alot, but I do remember some. But dad wasn't so open. He didn't really tell us about his life or his parents or grandparents, so we really don't know much about them at all (at least I don't). We know they came from Germany, but there are so many names and dates we need to know.  I've written to Elaine to see if she could help with this and also share any stories she may know, but I haven't heard from her and to be honest, I'm not sure I will. Matt is trying to do some genealogy for the Lauenstein's and has found a few names and dates, but not much and is now at a dead end.    Jerry & Matt have been working together also, but they haven't come  up with much together either.  I think this is going to have to be a group effort and I hope we will all jump in so we can all learn more about our ancestors!

So get your memories brushed off and let's begin to have some fun with this.  I know "you're" all getting old,  but let's think hard and get this blog going. I know  our families will benefit the most.

Thanks Matt,  for getting this & me going.  You've put  alot of effort into this and helped me remember the importance of this work!! 

We hope everyone will enjoy and contribute! -

Love To You All - Cindy
