Typically my post's on the 24th of July are about my Mom's birthday since, afterall it is today. However, I've decided to save that for later (as I have documented the day quite well--but have yet to upload it all to my computer) and to instead share what the 24th of July, also known as Pioneer Day in Utah, means to me this year.
At the beginning of the year, I felt some urgency in figuring out my family history--in pictures. As a part of that project, I have scanned a lot of pictures and documents, this tribute is one of them.
Joseph Strong (my great-great grandpa, i think) is someone I have come to learn a lot more about this year. Craig came in touch with some relative (yeah, see why I need help with the whole family history thing?) who sent some documents regarding Joseph and his family's journey to America. It is incredible.
I am grateful to have this as just a part of my heritage. There are so many other lines of my family and details I am coming to put together, slowly but surely.
Faith in every footstep.
