Happy New Year! Welcome 2023!

It was a beautifully set up event for New Year’s Eve, we had a Sofisticated party (misspelled on purpose) because it was ghetto fabulous! I over-dressed for sure but that’s cool, I don’t mind putting on the nice clothes here and there. After the dinner we played a murder mystery and that was a lot of fun.

I’m going to be moving my blog to this website instead of https://www.carmeloandjaime.com/  I think I will be letting that domain expire.

Anyhow, there are the photos from the event.

Early Christmas in Michigan!

We started splitting December up into 3 Christmases! We normally have 2, one for friends and one for family, but doing it that way doesn’t allow us to see everyone, so this year we decided that a remote Christmas, done early, allows us to visit some family at my brother’s in-laws place, then a friends one, then the local family’s Christmas in Phoenix.

We flew in on a Thursday and left on a Wednesday and the whole time we had a fun agenda, visited several places, and also spent some good quality family time, bonding around the dinner table.

We visited the Michigan International Speedway for NiteLites!

Then we visited the Henry Ford Museum

The car JFK was assassinated in

The Ferrari from Ferris Bueller’s day off

One of the first cars ever

Rosa Parks’ bus

The chair Lincoln was in when he was assassinated

Early Christmas Dinner

We also visited Frankenmuth, Zehnders, and Bronner’s

Feliz Dia de Los Muertos

Jaime and I joined Allison in Tucson for our first time celebrating the day of the dead. It was definitely an experience!
