Christmas Eve @ Teachín Ircink's.
Honestly, every get-together with my family is like this. It just so happens it's Christmas Eve and there's a scrumptious spread on the dining room table. And there's a Christmas tree. And presents & lights & snow. And my mother's wearing Santa's cap. Other than that - it's "business" as usual. So thankful. Candids & random shots.

Welcome to Wisconsin, Chuck & Mavis Ircink!
Chuck & Mavis are spending a few days in Wisconsin before they head back to Spokane. Chuck's father, my great Uncle Paul, was my Grampa Ircink's brother. Chuck's brother Paul - and his wife Lavonda - came out to visit in May.
Chuck & Paul grew up in Wisconsin and moved to Washington State when my Uncle Paul was transferred during high school (or immediately afterwards) with NAPA Auto Parts. Wonderful people (and their children, our 3rd cousins, are just as great). Course - they're Ircink's so what did you expect?
First cousins - Chuck & Dad.

Ircink Clan Canoe Outing - August 2013.
The Ircink cousins and Uncle Bob Nowak jumped in canoes the first weekend in August and made the trek from Lone Rock to Boscobel, WI. 29 miles down the Wisconsin River, the hardest working river in the world (most number of dams). We camped on the sand dunes and enjoyed God's gift to us. It was a good time.
Left to right: Me, Brother Jason, Cousins Paul Nowak, Rob Nowark, Tom Waite and Joe Nowak. Foreground - Uncle Bob Nowak (Aunt Ev Ircink's husband).

A celebration of 50 years! To Jim & Dee Dee....Huzzah!
My mother and father met while my dad's band, the Glen LeMar Trio, was playing at Jolly's Supper Club in Greendale. 50 years ago, Saturday, June 15, James Anthony Ircink & Dolores Regina Datka were wedded at Sacred Hearts Church in Franklin (now St. Martin of Tours), with the reception following at Clifford's Supper Club in Hales Corners. Or they met at Clifford's and the reception was at Jolly's. They remain wedded today and Brother Jas & I are very, very happy for them.
I made the corsage and boutonnière from flowers in my garden - a personal touch my parents loved. Here's a very quick video of my mom "pinning" my father, to "their song", "She Wears My Ring" .
We had a lovely time at Glen Mar - my place in Greendale - with music, stories and drinks - followed by dinner at Joey Gerard's Supper Club in Greendale. An evening very special for all of us.
