At the very top of this tree is an ornament (1 of 7) that brought us all to tears 22 Christmas-es ago...
You see, my mother had a tradition of getting an ornament for each grandchild each year. She made these snowman ornaments before her death. After they were opened, the kids discovered that by pressing the belly, their ornament would play 'Frosty, the Snowman'. The kids loved it, and although the adults all loved it too, we all cried! My mother made Christmas wonderful! (and I think at least one of those ornaments still plays all of these years later!)
And my own adorable grands are wearing one of my favorite traditions- Christmas dresses! I love looking for these while 'black shopping' with my Ash!- yet another great traditon!

I am so blessed!
