FSO-The New Year.

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.

MD said just take it slow and easy.
No jitterbugging.
Which was our favorite.

 1985
Our oldest daughter now old enough to attend with us.

1988
Another daughter old enough to attend.

 Now days we do our dancing mostly at home.

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
2013 and hope to spend many more days.

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




Please forgive my fuzzy pictures just remembering good time for us through the years.

Mrs. Santa is worn out. Now Santa, that is a different story. and a birthday wish.

For some reason Santa thinks he has nothing to do until Christmas Eve.

Mrs. Claus is worn out, but pleased at all that has been accomplished.

I don't have to clean up my kitchen table work space until almost 2 weeks.

Santa and Mrs. Claus are in their place on the stairway.

This is the first thing our kiddos and grands look for. 

A tradition for at least 30 years, yes way before some of them were born.

Hoo Hoo Hoo.

Mrs. Claus needs a day of rest.

   

 Happy Birthday dear Son-in-law.

 A super husband, dad, son and son-in-law, coach and all around great guy.
