Christmas Memories

I know we all have memories of our childhood and the older you get, the more you look back with fondness.
I’ve enjoyed seeing old photos of my blog friends at Christmas time so I looked through my scanned photos and found this one.
 

So here I am on the left, blonde curls and all smiles, my shy sister, Delores in the center and my sweet cousin, Cindy on the other side of her. (they are only a few months apart in age…I’m older! lol)
 (I cropped it to see a little better)
 
Don't you love the old cedar Christmas tree?
I hope you are having a wonderful holiday week and take time to think of the good old days of Christmases past.

*Merry Christmas*

What a sweet picture. I could pick you out immediately. You haven't changed a bit. Well maybe a little taller :). Your blonde hair and pretty smile shine through.
Merry Christmas to you and your husband, Diane.

Oh such sweet little girls - I'd recognize you anywhere. How wonderful to have these photos. All of our early photos were lost in the boat fire - everything our family owned was loaded on the boat to move to another town when it caught fire. Hope your christmas is as sweet as these photos my friend.

Merry Christmas. I do love old Christmas photos probably because I don't have any of us standing by our tree. Mom never took photos. I only have sweet memories. I hope you have a wonderful day. I send you hugs along with peace, joy, and love. Noel. Noel.
