childhood Christmas memories ~

This year I have had my camera close by recording the special things around the house that I hold dear and enjoy bringing out each year when we start preparing for Christmas. I thought I would share a few with you and perhaps something will spark a happy memory from your childhood Christmas as well.

Grandmothers ceramic tree

This Christmas tree was used at my Grandmother's house,

Santa music box

this music box sat on our console TV in the living room,

I hope you and your family are enjoying revisiting the Christmas memories of your childhood as well and making new Christmas memories this year . . .
