I remember one year when my sister and I liked to play in the corner behind the Christmas tree. We ended up dumping it over!

My mom used to buy us a Christmas ornament for each year and label it with a tag and the date. I have ornaments going back to 1954. I always bought ornaments for the kids and now, for the grandkids. When the kids moved out and got their own homes, I boxed up their ornaments and they had a start to decorating their trees.

That's more of a tradition, I guess, but those ornaments are full of wonderful memories!
