For the first 30 years of our married life HH and I had attended a New Year's Eve dance some where.
I have a picture of nearly every New Year's Eve dance we attended.
Even some when our children got old enough to attend with us.
However due to printer problems I cannot get those photos to upload so I took photos of them.
Not good photos but it shows how we started our new year for many years.
Well none of those photos were even presentable.
But dancing and parting on the eve and
Mass on New Year's day.

1984
Wearing a brace 3 months after fracturing a vertebra in my back.
MD said just take it slow and easy.
No jitterbugging.
Which was our favorite.

Another daughter old enough to attend.
Tom and our daughter Julia dancing.
Now days we do our dancing mostly at home.
Dancing with daughter and grand at our yearly P.J. sleep over.
Our last New Year's Even dance.

Dancing the new year in has been our tradition and our most enjoyable activity.
These days it is more stay at home and early to bed.

How I spent my New Year's Eve in

It is all about family.
Always was
Always will be.

I agree, Peggy. Every time of year always was and always will be about family. I think it's wonderful that you treasure those old photos and happy memories. Happy New Year to you and yours, my friend.
yes it is all about family. What a lovely tradition for you.
loving tie dancing to meet the new year. I like the lovely family photo.
Great walk through the enjoyable past!
I don't know if anyone can par up to the fun the Jones has when they have a gathering.
Dancing the night away - that's a great way to kick off a New Year. I hope yours is filled with love, hope, trust, good health and creativity!
Sometimes it's really nice to look back at the happy memories from the past at the beginning of a new year.
It`s wonderful that you have so many happy memories of dancing on New Year`s Eve. What a treat.
