I love the Christmas season - it's very important to me. If I could have all my blog readers over for a Christmas party, I definitely would!!! So in lieu of coming to my home, here are some photos for you...
Our memory tree - we decorate our tree with ornaments that represent a memory i.e. vacation, halloween costume, our loves, activities, kids sports, etc. For example - when we go on vacation to a certain place we purchase an ornament for each child (sometimes I've found ornaments after the fact at discount stores). When my kids get married and settled they will receive all their own ornaments from their childhood : )
