Memoirs: Christmas' past


Christmas Memories


A couple of years ago; we were vacationing with some friends and my girlfriend pulled out this book:


.........she was updating hers from the previous Christmas and we got the best laugh as she read aloud some of the funny events from years past.  I was immediately reminded of how quickly my memory lapses following such a busy time and I became taken with the idea of chronicling my own family's Christmas dinners, visitors, gifts, Christmas card and other special happenings. 

Capturing 20 years of Christmas memories; this book allows you to record customs and traditions unique to your family.  Granted, it may not be the most "stylish" of tomes on your bookshelf (a business opportunity for someone so inclined to "spruce" the idea up a bit!); it has already become one of my most treasured heirlooms.  

A great gift to give your own family this year or for the sentimental gal (like me) on your list! :)

  1. Aww, I know this book. So glad we will be able to read yours 10 years from now and giggle. PS Love the photo on the right under "Musings". Where did you take that? Precious.

  2. My cousin bought this for me for my wedding shower - at first I thought it was silly, but it's turned out to be one of the best presents I've received!
