Srečno novo leto 2018
Awful Beautiful Life
I woke up early with a poundin' in my head
I'd been out the night before with all my friends
A little worried, kinda wonderin' what I did
I said, " Lord, please forgive me for my sins."
My wife wanted to kill me, but she tried to save me first
"You're goin' if I have to drag your butt to church."

I love this crazy, tragic,
Sometimes almost magic,
Awful, beautiful life
Sometimes almost magic,
Awful, beautiful life
I read the hymns and kinda sorta sang along
And made it through the Sunday sermon wide awake
We met the family for dinner at our home
Drank some beer, watched a game, and cooked some steaks
My little brother had a big fight with his wife
And my poor mother sat between 'em both all night

We said a prayer for Cousin Michael in Iraq
We're all aware that he may never make it back
We talked about the way we missed his stupid jokes
And how he loved to be a soldier more than most

Love the wedding picture. They are most precious things to have. The dresses are beautiful too.
It is a beautiful life.
The New Year kitty is adorable. Purrfect for the upcoming year.
Have a purrfect Feline Friday, Anne. Big hug. ♥♥♥
What would we do with our precious memories. So glad I can call you a blessed friend. May 2018 be kind to you and family.
That's a sweet wedding photo. The women's dresses are beautiful. I love the scalloped tiers on your mom's dress. Happy New Year, Anne.
Beautiful foursome there, Anne. I've said it before, but you must be so proud!
I've not listened to the radio in a very long time now, but I remember hearing and enjoying Darryl Worley. I'm going to pull these wonderful lyrics up on YouTube in a little while.
Happy New Year!
What a wonderful wedding photo with your mother, father, aunt and uncle! Beautiful family - and, my!, what spiffy dressers! The bridal bouquet was just magnificent!
How fortunate you are to have such wonderful photographic history of your family. My mother's parents escaped Germany during WWII (literally, hiding in the back of a delivery cart! - just like a movie LOL). Sadly, they had to leave EVERYTHING behind, except for what they could sew into the linings of their clothing. So we have no family memorabilia beyond my grandparents - and then of their later years.
Anyway, I loved your photo - thanks for sharing it.
I didn't know the song but I liked the lyrics, so I looked up the video on youtube - I was surprised how peppy and fun it is! I really like it and thank you for 'sending' it to me! "I love this crazy, tragic,
Sometimes almost magic, Awful, beautiful life." Just the way I feel about it!
Happy Pink Saturday - and bright blessings for a splendid New Year!
The picture is a treasure--the whole party looked glamorous. Want to tell you I've been drinking the Gingerbread Tea and it is fantastic!!! Have never hear this song but it sounds true to me.

What a wonderful photo. Isn't it awesome how just looking at a photo can conjur up some of the most beautiful memories? I don't remember that song, but the words do sound like fun. You have a super evening, hugs, Edna B.
