Since we have no children we have no set traditions, by as I mentioned in my previous blog I read the HOLY SCRIPTURE passages about the birth of Jesus, a little book of I found in my Mother's belongings (and perhaps meant for children-only 71 pages) entitled THE FIRST CHURCH CHRISTMAS BARReL, and from the sublime to the ridiculous, Lampoons Christmas Vacation. The little book is about giving your very best of everything and a few other themes.NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120350701223005779.post-37085921795293237402010-12-09T07:03:57.928-08:002010-12-09T07:03:57.928-08:00good morning. i enjoyed reading your story. i thin...good morning. i enjoyed reading your story. i think it's great you do the pickle hunt. i enjoy my blessing tree feel free to consider. i may have to get a picle ornament. have a blessed day. roseRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06889643640183918872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120350701223005779.post-7120149568548007802010-12-06T11:08:54.703-08:002010-12-06T11:08:54.703-08:00What a cute tradition!
