Hello everyone, Winnie Griggs here. I always get nostalgic when I take the Christmas decorations out. So many memories attached to various pieces. And while they all evoke fond thoughts of Christmas past, there are a few that are extra special to me.
The first is the little bubble light tree I’ve pictured below. I believe I’ve posted about this before, but one of my earliest Christmas memories is of raptly watching the dancing movement of these lights as this tree sat on the console table of my grandparents’ home.
The second one is our tree topper. This ornament that is a combination of angel, nativity and star has topped our tree for over 30 years. I can still hear my children vying for the chance to be the one to set it in its place of honor and the lively debates over who did it ‘last year’.
And the last ones I want to share with you are these. They are two of the few surviving ornaments from the very first set hubby and I bought our first Christmas after we got married. Our tree was rather bare that year, and several of the decorations were handmade, but I was so very proud of how it looked.
There are many more memories that the decorations bring to mind, but I’ll leave it there.
I want to wish each of you a very joyous and blessed Christmas – here is my Christmas card to you.
