Hats off to You

by @ngie on January 1, 2009

At our annual New Years party at church we have a fun surprise waiting for us when we show up: hats! We never quite know what they are going to put on our heads each year. They seem to try to outdo themselves. I wonder what they will come up with 364 days from now.

Happy 2007!

Happy 2007!

Happy 2008!

Happy 2008!

Happy 2009!

Happy 2009!

Any suggestions so I could drop some hints to them about a desirable style for 2010?

Yours definitely seems to get bigger and bigger every year…I hate to see what you’ll have like 5 years down the road!

Tell them that DaRonn really loves Holly Hobbie bonnets. And you’re interested in a 70s pimp hat (complete with purple feather).

You’re welcome. ;)

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Michelle – As my mom used to say to statements like that when raising us five, “The kids keep me young.” :-) Or maybe it is because I celebrated my second sweet sixteen last June. At any rate… thanks!

Oh, I don’t think those hats are anywhere near tall enough. Ha!

Becky – Yes, I think that we could easily add another foot or two onto those monstrosities.

Mandie – This year is my fav’ so far, too, because we match. :-)

The hats grow over the years with the love they feel for both of you maybe?

Angie,

That was a great idea to do a post on the New Years hats. How clever.

Haha!! Totally unintended, but good catch!
