The things I love about Christmas?

The smell of sticky Pine sap on your hands from handling the tree

Hot cider , while watching A Christmas Carol- or any old Balck and White Christmas Movie.

Receiving Cards in the mail~ Pet Talk was my Mother Lode this year too!!!

Seeing the lively faces of the Children

Hearing the sound of "Bells" ringing on a snowy day.

The Homemade Cookies , of course. and, the smell of oranges!!!

Shiny Brite Tree ornaments from the 40's and 50's
