Christmas Ornaments?

That must be both my kids first NewYear's letter, wrapped in a selfmade little bag!

Then I also cherish the 3 selfpainted (on chalk) santa's, which I made when we were living in St.Louis in 1893

I haven't put up a tree since my mom passed in Dec 2001. I haven't even looked at my ornaments.

I do remember... I have this one that she gave me that is a kitty. She went out of her way to supplement my kitty collection. It's an ordinary ornament, but it's so cherished.

I haven't put up a tree for a few years, but my favorite ornament is one that my mom gave me. It's a little rolling pin with christmas greens on it, and a ribbon to hang it with. It's adorable, and so appropriate for the baker in me!

A magenta colored ball that has a train in white glittery paint wrapped all around it. It was my parents. (my parents are still with us) Somehow my sister had it and heard I was asking about it, so she gave it to me. It seldom goes on the tree depending on the furkids I have at the time.

My favorite is a pink and white "bell" made out of beads. I don't know who made it but I remember it hanging on the tree every year when I was a kid. That was the ornament I always hung every year. When I got married and moved out my mom gave me that ornament for my tree and it's hung at the top every year since.

Since we don't get white Christmas' in Florida a few years ago I decided I wanted to have a nice collection on snowman ornaments for the tree so we could have snow that way. My husband bought me a snowman a few years ago that I instantly fell in love with and it also became a favorite. It's wearing a red hat and juggling Christmas candy. It has a little dust of sparkles on it. I love it!
