It has been a busy holiday week with Christmas an new windows being installed in the same week...and I missed blogging. Happily, it is again Friday and time for Teresa's fun meme Friday Hunt. Today, the 'Starts With' is open, so I am choosing 'B' for Birthday and combining with Celebrate. The always lovely Patti shares her birthday with our Daughter Allegra, who was a week late so she could be born as the perfect present for her Mom. Nice! Here is her fifth birthday, the top pic when we invited her friends and relatives for a party and the second the immediate family party with cupcakes (12/29/1993). Today's family celebration is muted as Allegra is in Boston for a couple of days - so, cake will be served on Saturday!
The next subject is Weeks Favorite. The big all Villers holiday event is Christmas Eve, where food, kids gifts and a Yankee Swap is what makes this event. All the Villers who can attend do so. Normally the event is held at one family member's home, but this year it was held at a restaurant and we were able to get one of the kind waitstaff to stand on a chair and push the shutter button. The youngest attendee is five weeks old, the oldest...well, let's not go there :)
Looking forward to the first Friday Hunt in 2017!
Looks like you had an awesome family Christmas!
ReplyDeleteRalph, you need a wide angle lens to the entire gang in the picture. Happy Birthday to your sweeties and Happy New Year to all.
ReplyDeleteWow, you have a huge family! In my family, there is just me, my parents, and I have 3 first cousins but they are all in England. No aunts or uncles. No brothers, sisters, nieces or nephews. No grandparents. No wonder Christmas is very quiet for us! Happy belated birthday to Allegra (lovely name!) and Happy New Year to you all.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great family gathering! Looks like everyone had a wonderful time. Love the images from the birthdays past as well. Thanks so much for joining in Friday's Hunt. Happy 2017!
