2003 - Holiday Greeting

From My House to Yours
2003

Here comes my greeting for  2003 

Another attempt by the poet in me 

The year was a full one from start to end 

The events that took place are what I send 

A trip to Austria in January for me 

Salzburg and Innsbruck and still time to ski 

It was a year for family together as one 

Greta saw to that by things she had begun 

First a bridal shower then her marriage to Charles 

The planning and wedding were without any snarls

From ceremony through reception, and I’m not lyin’ 

The day was better than the one for Trista and Ryan 

Laura wrote a poem to share with the guests 
She read it to all in her maid of honor dress 

An ice storm in April was not too much fun 

Wires down, power out as well as lack of sun 

Family got together throughout the summer 

Nadine had her appendix out, what a bummer 

A weekend  with Gerry at Greta's by the pool

An outdoor dinner in Greenwich was oh so cool 

A blackout hit the East Coast for a night
It happened in the summer so it was all right 

And then the most exciting event of them all 

Myles entered this earth so perfect and small 

The holiday season was almost here

When Laura's car got hit by a deer 

Each day brings new adventures, surprises and joys

I’m so proud of my children and our two new "boys" 

Enjoy your family and friends this holiday season

Spend time together for whatever the reason   

Happy Holidays and a Healthy New Year
