About Me!

My mom, me, and my niece
My mom, me, and my niece

Hi! I’m Grace, a 20-something-year-old from a small town in Illinois.

Family is the most important thing in the world to me. My immediate family consists of my mom, dad, brother (Justus), sister (Hayley), and my nieces (Hayley’s kids), Kenzi, age 10, and Quinn, age 7.

I live with my dad and see everyone else several times a week. We get together for dinner and to play games (Cribbage and Euchre are family favorites). We have book club together or watch and talk about our favorite tv shows. We are very close. I am incredibly thankful to have such an amazing family.

About Trees of You and Me

Since family is so important to me, I think finding out more about my ancestors is fascinating. I also think it is important to preserve family memories.

On this website, you can information about family, genealogy, and tips to preserve family memories (such as scrapbooking).

Where to start?

Look around. I hope you can find some helpful information.

I’d also love to hear from you all with any comments, questions, or ideas for posts you would like to see. Email me at gracehopenewman@gmail.com or use the connect with me buttons.
