my tree
I love my huge star!
And, look! I even have some presents underneath!
Now, on to some favorite ornaments......
Joseph, Jesus and Mary
a tiny stocking from a great-aunt when I was three years old
Vince gave me this cottage the first Christmas in our first house
(that house also had a red door!)
a memento from the beach this past summer
a NYC taxi cab from our first trip there together
an ornament from my parents' trip to England this past summer
Razorback Santa--Whoo Pig Sooie!!
(Vince's) Darth Vader
a giant peppermint handcrafted by my sister
a favorite Father Christmas--I love that he's wearing a blue coat!
this is one of several *vintage postcard* ornaments on the tree
a souvenir from a vacation in DC
a Blue Willow teacup
Well, I could go on and on (don't tempt me--I have more pictures!), but I'll be kind and let you go visit some more blogs today (hehe).
Visit There Is No Place Like Home for some more fun show & tell!

Cheers!
