But I love a big tree and will have one again when everyone comes to our house for Christmas. I love the decorating.

It was so wonderful seeing them years later and remembering each trip.<br />I loved the pictures of those beautiful ornaments and the history you wrote.<br />I'm so sorry it took this long for me to get to your post.

Hubby and I no longer put up a tree, mainly because our Christmas village has grown so big that we don't have room. However, we used to decorate our tree with glass ornaments and handmade ones, some made by our children when they were small and others we bought at craft fairs. We split them up between our son and daughter when we stopped having a tree. I spotted some on our daughter's tree last night when we spent Christmas Eve with her and her family. Brought back fond memories! Lyn Hornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596495172490672271noreply@blogger.com
