Bye ornaments!!!
Matthew's special ornament from Gramma
Bye tree!
So here we are in 2008! My how time flies . . . sometimes I wish it would move faster and then I get sad that it seems to be moving too fast. I'm never happy, huh?
The coming of the new year also means the take down of all things Christmas.
I love Christmas. By November I'm counting down the days until the tree can go up and all the Christmas trimmings can come out and play! But once boxing day is over I'm ready to move on but I force myself to keep the tree up until January 1st.
The kids had almost as good a time taking the tree down as they did putting it up! I think they are ready to move on too. We got many new ornaments this year. I will be delighted to see them again next Christmas I'm sure! hehehe With my memory how it is I'm sure I'll have forgotten about many of them.
This is a special one from a special friend . . . thank you Ellie!!! I love it!

You are so right. I can't wait for Christmas but it comes and goes sooooooo quickly.
What a beautiful ornament. That will be exciting to see them next year.
Happy New Year!
I know exactly what you mean. I always find it bittersweet. I'm SO ready to get my house back to it's normal appearance, but it's sad to box everything up for another year. I really love Christmas decor!
Until next year! It will happen again before you know it. And just think, Gillie bean will be walking and talking by then!
What a beautiful ornament!
Jeff and I go back and forth on when to take the decorations down. I want to do it right after Christmas and he wants to wait till Jan1 like you. I usually let him win on this one!
Just checking on you Junie :)
I hope you are feeling better!
I am glad you like the ornament, and I am so happy it got to you in one piece
