Family Tree

So throughout the year my brother has been following in my footsteps and graduating 5th grade from Concord Elementary school. As a part of this, he had to complete a "Me Book" that has cute little pages like what your favorite memory is or what not. One thing that I had almost forgotten doing was the family tree. Mine of course is 10x better than the one he did.

Really it was exciting for me t see it because I had talked over last summer with a bunch of my cousins about starting an online-based interactive family tree. This is the first step toward that goal. I've decided that it shall be a Flash based applet and I'm going to complete it this summer. Family is the one thing you can't really change so I'd at least like to get this project started and posted as soon as possible. In the end I hope to have contact information and current locations listed so the final version will probably be password protected and will most likely be hosted on my website and not here. But don't fret! I'll be sure I include a somewhat final version here somewhere at some point.

I'd also like to include a version with close family friends of mine or something of the sort. Maybe a friend tree? That'd be interesting, of course that version wouldn't include contact information or anything like that. Unless people wanted it to. Hmmm I'll have to think about that one. Anyways yeah, I'd really like to include that at some point cause if you know me well enough I'll probably have told you that friends are the family that you get to choose. And that's true.
