Our little lane which deadends on the ocean is known in our town as the best lane at the beach. Our holiday traditions are street parties at the ocean front house for Memorial Day, 4th of July, and Labor Day. We do a Progressive Dinner on New Year's Eve. Everyone has their traditional food they bring to the parties. I blew it on Memorial Day and did not bring homemade chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches. I had so many disappointed people who said, "you don't mess with tradition". Believe me, I did the sandwiches for th 4th - 5 dozen of them.<br /><br />I just pinned your lovely tablecloth as a to do for this summer.Art and Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09070124859845536964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-26560662997989619312013-07-07T22:52:57.496-04:002013-07-07T22:52:57.496-04:00So happy for you and your new traditions.

It's even hard for my children to say where home is. We just so happened to relocate again the same time we were finishing renovations on the cottage! Whew!! That's the main reason that we bought and invested so much time into Pinehurst Cottage....my children will always have a forever house. I love tradition also and I try to make as many of them for my family as I can.
