Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful celebration bringing in 2019. I also hope everyone has recovered from the craziness of the holidays and took some time to enjoy the lights. Our family had our normal Christmas on the 25 th and then extended out our Christmas through New Years so we could celebrate with the entire family. By the time it was all said and done I was exhausted! Nevertheless, it was worth all the effort because there is nothing like having a houseful of kids and grandkids surrounding the table. Of course, the biggest and best event that took place over the last month was I added another grandbaby girl to my tribe! Whew~~! I think I have finally caught my breath and I can now fill you in on some of my melodious thoughts.
