For old long ago

How blessed I was to ring in 2012 with friends that became as close as family while living as neighbors at Baylor. So much so, that we even had a family photo feud while facing the tripod for a reenactment pose from 2008...

While flying home from KC this morning, I read this quote:

"What is the meaning of this New Year's Eve Song? Auld Lang Syne is about old friends who have parted and meet again. To celebrate their long friendship, they share a drink together and reminisce of memories from long ago. The basic message is that we should not forget our old friends and should celebrate a reunion with them.

When the clock strikes midnite on New Year's Eve, gather everyone together at your party or celebration to sing the New Years Song and remember the good memories of family and friends from long ago." 



I am thankful to have been surrounded by these precious friends as 2011 comes to a close and we welcome in 2012. I greet this new year with the joy of new memories, while celebrating the old!
