I made dinner for my family a few nights ago, then my roomie was nice enough to take a family photo for us. This is Grandma Joyce, Aunt Stacey, Uncle Dave, Grandpa Bill, Cousin Delaney, and me.

What one thing do the Greer's, Martinez's, and Johnson's all have in common?

Jaime. (That's me.)

So it sounds a little self centered. But it's actually a lot less self centered than it sounds. I wanted to create a place to tell my familes's stories, but I didn't want be exclusive and only tell my mom's side of the family's stories (the Greers). Or my Dad's side (the Martinez's). And what about my maternal Grandmother's side of the family (the Johnsons)? Though she's now officially a Greer, a long, long time ago she was a Johnson. A lot of my beloved family members classify as Johnsons, and not Greers.

While researching my family heritage I have discovered that there is always a new family, a new branch, a new twig or leaf to learn about. What about my maternal grandmother's uncle? Did he marry and have children? Who were they? What were there stories?

The possibilites of family are endless, and I don't want to classify one bit of my family heritage as more important than another.

I want to know all of their stories.
