When I decorate my Christmas tree, it brings back wonderful memories.  Many of the ornaments were handmade by loved ones or have other special meanings to me.

I always get “warm fuzzies” when I unpack the musical crochet snowman ornament.  My grandmother made it twenty years ago for my kids when they were small.  It has a music button on the bottom of it that I have to push before hanging it on my Christmas tree.

Another favorite is a small handmade clay angel that the 4-H club gave me daughter when she was diagnose with Type 1 diabetes. It reminds me of the thoughtful people in our community.
