I remember the joy of the six of us kids sitting by the Christmas tree early Christmas morning and opening our stockings. That was the absolute best part of the day!

My favorite Christmas happened 3 years ago. My mother is an avid fan of Christmas. When you walk into her home it's like walking into a Christmas shop! My mom had this beautiful artificial tree that was about 17 years old just laden with ornaments. My mom literally has 15 huge tubs of ornaments that she has collected over the last 30 years. Well we were reading the story of Christ's birth with all our family gathered in the living room when all of a sudden there was the sound of the tree falling. Apparently the weight of the ornaments had been wearing thin the metal base of the tree and it snapped. After picking up the ornaments we laughed at the "Charlie Brown Tree", which the very next year my dad had cut off the broken base, set it up on cinder blocks, covered the blocks with the tree skirt and reused the broken tree. :) That is my favorite memory.
Your ornaments are great!
I can't pick one favorite Christmas memory....every year watching my kids find surprises left for them by Santa....when I was a girl spending the night at my grandparents with my cousins was amazing....I remember my presents but loved that we were all together on Christmas morning. I love your picture ornaments!!!!
One of my favorites is being in NYC for the Macy's parade - something I had watched on tv for years. So neat to be there in person - and it was 2001 - so it was more special to be in the city that year.
My favorite memories include the anticipation of Christmas...as a child it takes so long...as an adult it comes too fast!
Love the ornaments. Adore your beach photos, already for planning for next summer (here in the midwest)
Thank you for the beautiful necklace. I ordered it for my mother last Christmas, and she loved it. I can't wait to order me one for this year. I really like the new beaded necklaces!
For as long as I can remember we have begun the holiday season the same way. We would pull out the Christmas tree ornaments, put on the cd "Come On Ring Those Bells", and sing our hearts out while we decorated the tree. December 05 was the last time we were able to do this all together. Mom was sick with pancreatic cancer and we were painfully aware it would be her last Christmas. I will always cherish those memories of our family and continue it to this day with my children.
My favorite Christmas memory happened last year when my four year old had the excitemenet and wonder only a child can have. When he woke up Christmas morning and realized the Santa had been here he cried with excitement. Love it!
One of my favorite memories of Christmas was when my 1 year old and I were playing with one of his favorite toys on the living room floor. We were so busy that we didn't notice our cat launching herself into the Christmas tree and knocking it over. Thank goodness we weren't too close!
I love these ornaments, they'd be such a perfect gift for the grandparents! And come visit my blog for a giveaway too!
One of my favorite Christmas memories is actually something we do each year. 9 years ago my mother was very ill and was in ICU for about 60 days and Christmas was during that time. We literally spent all of our time in the ICU waiting room. I will always remember that there was a basket of snack foods, hot chocolate and coffee mixes, and fruit that some good Samaritan put in the ICU waiting room. It was such a small gesture but meant so much to my family. So now, every year on Christmas Eve our much expanded family (including my Mom-praise GOD!) goes up to that same ICU waiting room where we deliver a basket of goodies and a card and pray over the waiting room.
Thanks for the giveaway!
My favorite Christmas was when my son was born in December. It brought a whole new meaning to me-at Christmas time. I didn't get out to shop and I stayed at home gazing at my precious little one. It reminded me of Jesus and the miracle of His birth. He is truly amazing and I will never forget how peaceful our Christmas season was that year in 2002.
Every Christmas since I have been a mom has been my favorite Christmas. It is pure joy seeing my boy's faces coming down the stairs in the morning.
I loved the Christmas when I was pregnant with our first child, and it was our first year in a new state and it was just my husband and I on Christmas. the first time ever and it was fabulous. Our special year before parenthood!

One of my favorite Christmas memories will always be the excitement & joy of my three daughters on Christmas morning when they found "just what they had wished for' underneath the tree. And then followed by all the enjoyment of opening their stocking. In fact all my girls are now in their twenties and they still love their stocking.
Love your ornaments, just beautiful.
My favorite holiday memory was watching my son open presents last year cause he finally understood that they were for him!! :)
One of my first memories of Christmas had to be when I was 5. That year I got a brand new bike for Christmas. I was so excited & couldn't wait to ride it.
Now my best memories are watching my girls get so excited about opening their presents.
The ornaments are beautiful, I love photo ornaments!
