It is nearly bedtime and I haven't seen a Tuesday 4 post yet. I still have a few pictures of Christmas decorations that I haven't posted yet, and they fall into the "treasured" category. I have many more treasures, but these are the ones that made it out of the boxes this year...
This tree was crocheted by my mom, many, many years ago. There is a styrofoam tree under it.
The snowman is a music box and my BFF Elaine made it for me many, many years ago!
We finished our Christmas shopping yesterday and I did get the package off to Virginia so now I can start thinking about Christmas cookies and candy making. because I am giving some of that away. We got a free Honeybaked Ham coupon in the mail from a friend today so I don't have to buy a ham for Christmas dinner!!
Today I get my every-six-weeks facial with my friend, Dawn. We talk through the entire session and I look forward to catching up with her and the family.
Oh my goodness...a 6 week facial...no wonder you look so young! LOL. You are amazing! And I love all your special memories and treasures. Christmas seems to be the time that we pull out all the memories that we've stored away in boxes and we walk down memory lane with our treasures from the past that bring us joy. I love it. Seems like this year I've been more nostalgic than ever...maybe it is because we are all feeling more nostalgia about family because we've been more isolated from them. It helps us to appreciate what we have and what we had so much more. Enjoy your day today.
ReplyDeleteI love your handmade decorations especially the tree.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
I love your handmade decorations, they are the best! Have fun catching up and getting your facial!
ReplyDeleteI always love homemade decorations. It seems those have stood the test of time for me. Those are the ones I display the most. I absolutely love the crocheted tree your mom made. That is perfect.
ReplyDeleteLovely decorations, Terri! It's wonderful to be able to dig out treasures once a year that help us remember friends and loved ones.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
Thanks for sharing your pictures.
ReplyDeleteI love the crocheted tree your Mom made. I also love the music box snowman.
Sounds like you have Christmas under control. WOW a free ham, how nice.
Enjoy your time with Dawn.
Have a great day my friend.
I love your crocheted Christmas Tree, so pretty and being from your mom makes it so special. I'm so glad Jesus loves us, peace and hugs back to you!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen anything like that crocheted tree before -- so pretty! Thinking another trip to the Dollar Store may be in order. (heh-heh)
ReplyDeleteI'm putting up a similar post tonight and was also reminded that there are so many memories and friends associated with these decorations.
ReplyDeleteI have a Jesus is the reason sign too.
I love that hooked rug!
PS - thanks for the card!
Love all the decorations and the stories that go with them, Terri! Enjoy your facial!
