I'm still around, hee hee! We had a wonderful New Year's Eve party with close friends and family. However, we did start a fire with our fireworks, but the guys got it under control quickly and there was no damage or injuries {thank goodness}
I should have had someone else in charge of the picture taking because I was just too busy playing hostess to get very many. Here are a few of the ones I snuck in. Next time, I will have a picture taker other than me! {Live and Learn!}

My brother and his family went home on Sunday and I started taking my tree down…I should have waited for the tree because that was too much sadness for one day. Family leaving and the realization that Christmas was over for another whole year.
I have no plans this weekend except for a trip to Lufkin to pick up the girls bride's maid dresses. It's supposed to be really cold beginning Sunday and the first part of the week so I think I will go stock up on groceries.
Happy Weekend to all!
Looks like a great time spent with family! Have a wonderful weekend!

ReplyDeleteHi Tracey,
ReplyDeleteGreat family pictures! OMG to the fire that got started from thr fireworks. That is why they are illegal here in CA. The parks put on firework shows but er can't legally set off any. I know it is sad the holidays are over. This year because of my little Lily I did not out my tree up I know what she would of done lol Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Hugs, Dru
What a nice gathering you had! I understand about the photo taking. I bring the camera along faithfully and then get engrossed in what's going on and forget to take any photos. Hope you're having a warm, nice day! ((Hugs))
