A Few Of Our Favorite Things - Christmas Tour

Good Morning All, Welcome to the A Few of Our Favorite Things - Christmas Tour. Thanks BooMama for sharing this idea. We're happy to play along. Just click the photo to join us. If you didn't see my tree click here and scroll down. :) Enjoy!

This Christmas I am enjoying little 'traditions' that have made themselves traditions in our family. You know we all have traditions we bring from our growing up years, we all add favorites from our spouses families, then pick a few we like. Well, this mirror was a family tradition growing up. An ever steady presence in our home. It reminds me of the times my parents would dress up to go to various important things that my attorney-father was involved in, or my mother's many community volunteer projects, or our church happenings. The mirror stood high because my Daddy was 6'5". I love dressing it up this year for Christmas and thinking of all those Christmases in our living room growing up with the mirror right there as we all celebrated Christmas together.

Another family tradition that has just become a part of our little family through the years, is our friends The Nutcrackers. My mother collected Nutcrackers and this started when my mothers Nutcrackers were passed down to me. :) My small collection grew overnight that year. Now, we add each year and love our little friends all over the house.

Here is my Chef Friend Nutcracker. The Chef joined our family last year and I have loved having him keep me company in the kitchen this year. :)

Our new Christmas Card display from Hallmark. Simple and cute and holds just the Christmas cards. This was taken a week or so ago. The cards are starting to flow - here is the idea.

A tradition the Tigers started before they could speak, the Christmas Dogs! They come out each year and live with us oh, a few months then they go protect the Christmas decor. They go with us everywhere. And they sing/bark Christmas Carols too. :) Here the Tigers and the Christmas Dogs take in our town Christmas parade. Here they are after the first hour and forty-five minutes of the parade. They all hung in there. The Christmas Dogs were a great joy with them at the parade.

Merry Christmas early and thanks for visiting! Christmas Giveaway will be Wednesday. So enter the "Win It Wednesday!" Good luck. God Bless.

Warmly,
