Christmas Memories 2010

Christmas was very hard this year, with the passing of my Mother-in-Law in October. She was a huge part of our family and she is missed by all of us... We loved her very much!




This is my mom and dad on Christmas day at our house for dinner.. They both have been ill and were doing well that day... Please say a prayer for them both....
This is the Creche that Toms Grandfather made for him back in the early 60's out of old orange crates. He made several that year so all the kids had one... We all treasure them...




The small tree in the dinning room with old spoons and cardinals....



The tree in the living room with all the wonderful old ornaments... I just love getting them out one by one with all the great memories of each...




Colleen's first Christmas...

Amanda's first Christmas...




I love this quilted one Amanda made years ago...



This I painted back in the 90's



A piece of Okra out of the garden, dried and painted....


And we can't forget the babies....





Our dinner table set and ready for guests on Christmas day...



Cute little snowmen....


Everyone seemed to enjoy them...
Happy New Year to all....
Lynn...
