Nana & Grandpa and the Oscars
Last night I felt very nostalgic and missed Mom & Dad terribly as we watched the Academy Awards. I have such fond memories of watching the "Oscars" with them each year. It was always such a big deal in our family and we always made it a point to watch them. We would all make our projections about who would win the various awards. We would critique the special musical numbers and the job the master of ceremonies had done. And, of course, Mom would always point out the dresses she liked best.
I am happy that tradition has carried on and that our kids still make it a point to watch the Oscars and make their own predictions. Mom & Dad have left us with so many wonderful memories and fun family traditions!

Yeah, I feel the same way. I remember the oscars being such a special event. We would all get together, eat snacks and watch the entire show while we predicted who the winners would be. Of course, the festivities began way before the actual night as we predicted in the preceding weeks. I'm thankful for the traditions that add a special element into our lives.
I felt really hungry for that chipped beef dip and salmon flavored cream cheese.
