Another New Year!

Another New Year, 2016! The extended Haskell family met agaiin for the holidays at #4 and #7 Mossy Oaks Lane on Hilton Head Island. This year was a particularly fine get-together. The grand-children are growing up and becoming fun to be with. The four adult Haskell children are proud parents of a boy and a girl each and these siblings enjoy eachother's company. Charlie Fletcher is happily married to Megan, who has become one of our family. Bekah and Sayde were here from Boulder and discussed their future plans to try out Las Vagas. Jan and Joss put on a cocktail party at their apartment—great fun! Margo and Butch entertained/fed us constantly at their home; including a New Year's Party where we all(well, most of us) watched Clemson beat Oklahoma. in the Orange Bowl. Tina and Ben cooked a super spaghetti meal one night with Noah and Lisi assisting in the pie-making. Steve Morgan and Michelle wrapped presents repeatedly for their young-uns and also cooked another super meal. Morgan and Emily were their usual energetic selves and are growing up to be fun kids to have around. Corie was, as usual, a great help having around and is happy with her Winthrop University progress. Lisi wowed us with her tennis skills and Noah told us all about his musical accomplishments with a concert scheduled for Jan 17th. Pat and I hope to visit Tina and her group sometime this spring. Dora Tait, who has now been with us for almost two years celebrated her 88th. in 2015. Margo recorded this mighty-get-together with another splendid photo only minus Winslow, who will be photo-stated in later. We are blessed with good health and looking forward to 2016. Dora's Peruvian custom of holding a silver-dollar at midnight, hopefully, ensures that things will continue to go well for the extended Haskell family in the New Year.
