And then I got this little gem in my inbox....

This is my mom's tree and it hasn't been up in a while since we typical go skiing right after Christmas, but my step-dad surprised my mom with a tree this year....... So here's the tree in all it's glory Most of the ornaments have been on the tree since I was a baby and things that my mom and I have collected over the years, like most families we try to add ornaments each year and from all the places we've been. So Here are a few of my favorites....These my mom got for my first Christmas and were made by a woman who worked with my mom and they are my favorite..course... Baby's 1st Christmas.... it's been there a while Santa was very good to me... hope you all enjoy your holidays What are your holiday traditions?
