MY CHRISTMAS MEMORIES
I
made this page just to show some of the happy holidays I have had over
the years. Some of my cyber friends thought it would be nice to see
my holiday pictures, so folks, this is for you!!
I
have always loved Christmas. Here I am at a very young age, just
wanting to help with things and I'm being kept out!!! That's my uncle's
arm, he was probably either reading to me or laughing at me! He really
loved Christmas and I think I inherited a lot of my love for it from him.
A
few years later my folks decided I could decorate!! Hooray!!
Here I am decorating our old tree. It sort of looks like Charlie
Brown's tree now, but when I was a kid it was so beautiful.
This
is a tree my grandparents had back in the late 1960's. Unfortunately
for me, it was a real one and I'm very allergic to those! But it
was beautiful and I'm really glad to have this photograph of it, as I think
this was the last year they put a tree up.
Here
are a couple of pictures of trees from the 1970's. My brother got
that Pooh Bear around 1977. Looks like Santa was really good to us
in these pictures!!!!
It
was very exciting moving into my own home and decorating for the holidays.
Here is my porch, it's small but I love it. The window now also has
lights around it.
Here
are a couple of the trees I have had at my home over the years. My
father made the reindeer in the first picture for me, and I made the Santa
wallhanging. I enjoy sewing and making decorations for Christmas.
Here
is a picture of my Santa's. I collect them, and have all kinds.
I don't spend much money on it, I have bought some after Christmas, people
have given me Santa's, and I have made some. This is just a hobby
I have for fun.
Here
are some more decorations, the second picture shows my nativities.
The nativity on the first shelf in the right corner is the one my family
used to display when I was a child. I made the angel on the top.
This
was my table decoration one year, I really enjoy my train. I used
to have Christmas dinner for my family and this is the only time of the
year I cook!!
