Adventure #2 - Family History Family Night
My younger sister, Linda, has spent many years working on family history, so we persuaded her to impart some of her ancestral knowledge to the rest of us (mostly for the benefit of the kiddos). We saw photos of and examined books and clothing that belonged to various ancestors.

That sounds like a lot of fun - and with visual aids! I will have to suggest the visuals part to my family next time my Mom's sisters plan a family history night (Interesting, but a tad bit snore-inducing).
