It's Almost Conference Time!



This coming Monday I'll be flying to Utah to attend the BYU Conference on Family History & Genealogy. As I already mentioned here on my blog, I was invited to be an official conference blogger. Am I excited? Oh ya! I've never been to a major genealogy conference before. So this will be a new and very cool experience for me.

After doing a bit of research about what to bring to major genealogy conferences, I followed the advice of others and bought a rolling backpack to bring to the conference. I also had some contact cards (business cards) printed to bring along with me.



I'll be away from home for about a week. Yes, I will miss my husband and youngest son who aren't accompanying me on this trip. But, I will be able to spend some time with other family members there in Utah. So, that will be fun.

Speaking of my youngest son, he just recently returned from serving a two-year full-time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I shared photos of our happy reunion with him on my personal blog Jana's Place. We had a surprise waiting for him at the airport. To find out what that was, you can read about it by clicking HERE.

I'll be blogging about my experiences at the BYU Conference on Family History & Genealogy next week, so I hope you'll follow along here on my blog.

Thanks for reading!
