Celebrations for All

 I never realized it before, but January has become a month of celebrations and remembrances.

The month starts off with the New Year excitement and then family celebrations kick-in. Before mid-month there are three birthdays and an anniversary. With the arrival of Beck, two of the birthdays on the same day. 

Last evening we celebrated the birthday of our formerly youngest grandchild. We had a great time gathering at a Japanese Steak House to celebrate Lucas' birthday. It was good to see him again before we evacuate Maryland for warmer temperatures in Florida. We are looking forward to the forecasted 80 degree temperatures in Tequesta this weekend. Maybe I'll thaw out.

But, the month of remembrances and celebrations is not over yet. Of course there is the MLK remembrance, but following I have a sister with a birthday nearing the end of the month.

Wow! Celebrations for all. It gives us all something to look forward to during the cold, dark month of January.

Programming Note: I expect to be traveling tomorrow and Friday so the blogs will be short, if at all. I can usually get one out after the sun comes out and Chris takes over the driving.
