I also wanted to hold off until after Thanksgiving to decorate my personal blog but I also wanted to make sure genealogy bloggers had resources available for their decorating needs.
Posted 19 Nov 2009 at 08:49 ¶I don’t mind Christmas coming early! I was singing carols in the car to the radio today. It’s just that Thanksgiving is a much more genealogy friendly holiday, especially to people here in New England or us folks with Pilgrims in the family tree.
Posted 19 Nov 2009 at 15:28 ¶Yeah! I did it. Thanks Thomas for the education. It worked. A little scary at first when you hit that delete button but relatively easy. A little tweeking still required, some of my gadgets are giving me a bit of trouble but for my first time it was pretty simple.
