I have a number of ornaments like that as well - those we bought the first year we were married, the ones I got for each of my kids the year they were born, those that were gifts from friends. It makes decorating the tree become like a walk down memory lane...Winnie Griggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02295070748234710260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14505413.post-55426867983560548732015-12-12T13:53:16.461-06:002015-12-12T13:53:16.461-06:00Doris, thanks for your kind words and for being he...Doris, thanks for your kind words and for being here today!

We married in 1958, and our first years were in Houston in a second story apartment. I have a photo somewhere that Jim took of me sitting on the floor beside our three foot tall tree on the end of the coffee table. I wore shorts, sandals, and a sleeveless top. After all, this was Christmas in Houston, Texas. But I also recall walking around downtown, which was decorated to the nth degree. The big department store--can't recall the name now--had those glassed in showcases on the outside of the building so you could walk by the on the sidewalk. The next year, we went into the store, and I went to the stationary department to find a few cards. There, in the aisle, I fainted. Didn't know I did until I woke up and people were standing around me looking down. Jim pushed through and got on his knees. Someone had gone through my purse to find my name, and a clerk announced over the intercom: A young lady has fainted in the stationery department. Is anyone with her? Name--Celia Ann Yeary. Yep, that's me...and I was pregnant and didn't even know it.

Costco has good ones...I like to leave it up so soon and so long Hubs would worry about fires. It's super realistic!

I always like things kids made or special decorations handed down or bought on vacations or to remember loved ones. That just speaks to the real feeling of Christmas.<br />My tree is a dwarf compared to yours--only 3 feet. LOL<br />Have a wonderful Christmas.Sarah J.
