Merry Almost Christmas!

I was going through some of my Dad's stuff last night and I found this picture. I thought that it was an appropriate one to post. There's a date on the side that says Feb 1961 so my guess is the picture is from Christmas 1960 in Roxbory, MA. I'll have to find out more about this photo! I know that Dad volunteered for the Boys and Girls Club but I'm not sure if this has anything to do with that. My Mom has the Manger in the back of the photo. It was built by my Dad's Uncle. I loved playing with it as a kid. (Though I didn't do anything like Mr. Bean did.) 

Not expecting tomorrow to be an easy day but I'm holding onto the good memories and the love that my family has for each other. All I want for Christmas (other than my Dad to be here) is to be with my family, swap stories about my Dad and listen to his Christmas CDs. I think that he would have appreciated that. 

I hope that wherever you are that you have the nicest of days. Thanks for stopping by. Merry Christmas.
