So Pretty and I have always been interested in our family trees, and this year I decided to give us our DNA tests as a Christmas present to each other. I can never pick any gift for Pretty because whatever I pick she already bought for herself years ago, and that makes me struggle to come up with something creative for special occasions. DNA idea was brilliant, I thought.
I’ve been dealing with ordering the kits, supervising and returning sample collections and registering at the appropriate sites to activate. Whew. Quite the ordeal.
Hooray, one of our results came in this week: mine. I have been thoroughly entertained with the pie chart and other info. Seriously. Thoroughly entertained. I can roam through the site for hours looking for relatives.
Now I am searching for the 710 cousins who are Out There Somewhere…Calling All Cousins…let’s catch up.
Oh, as for Pretty, well, her sample didn’t pass the sample test – so she has to do another one. Sigh. So much for creativity

T needs to spit more often so she can get in the habit! I will be interested to see if you can connected with people this way. I found that I really don’t have that many connections that are close enough–or the matches are people who don’t have trees!!!–but I have made a few . . . . I have a match with a genealogy blogger here on WordPress.
