It was cold today. 45 for the high, but it starts to warm up again tomorrow.  It will be in the mid 50's, I think by the weekend, which is above average.

I heard on the weather channel today that the Cherry Blossoms are blooming in Washington DC

ummm......when do they usually bloom???

The spring not sure exactly....


Ah, it is. It's the first day of autumn! A time for hot chocolatety mornings, and toasting marshmallow evenings, as best of all, leaping into *leaves*!

But I was going to ask you all - what is the earliest Christmas memory you have?   I remember shopping with my mom when maybe 4 yrs old.  And pointing to a life sized newborn baby doll.   And wanting it.  But no, couldn't buy it that day.

And then it was one of my Christmas presents!   So loved that dolly.

I remember when I was about 4 waking up Christmas morning to my brother who had been away in the military sitting under our tree ....my mom didn't even know he was coming home

What a wonderful "present".

Oh wow,  What a great memory.  I have so many, but my biggest memories were that I always had to wait until my mother got up in the mornings, video camera in hand, before I could go out and see what Santa brought.  It was always mid-mornings...so it felt like forever. LOL  She had to video tape everything. heheh

One of the "sadder" Christmas was after my parents divorced.  We didn't do much that year to celebrate, but we did have a real Christmas tree, went to some kind of community party and brought home lots of yellow balloons.  That was all the "decorations" that we had on the tree that year.  It still ended up being a nice Christmas. Still have a picture of our "balloon" tree.. lol

Love it....

One of my favorite Christmas' was one year my daddy had wrapped these presents, little ones and they were under the tree for me and mama...(it was just me, daddy and mama) and when I opened it written in the bottom of the little box it said "I love you, Daddy"  everytime I think about it it makes me smile and cry at the same time...I still have that little box it is is my most cherished gift I ever got from him....

AW....that is beautiful.

Oh, my gosh!  how wonderful April.

Luv reminded me that when my children were very young - 2 and 5 maybe...we had moved to Minneapolis and it was our first Christmas away from our home state and families close by.  And money was tight.  We had a nice big tree and lights, yes, but we made most of the ornaments and for the angel...

I wrapped a white chiffon scarf around little girl's Barbie Doll - and made some wings...paper towel cardboard tube made it perch on top of the tree!!
