Seriously. So, I recall opening this, but my computer locked up and it was hopeless. I am at work now, and here I am. Shhh. I'm from Texas. My fav what? Ornament? Tradition, I think. I love "doing" Christmas with my parents Christmas morning and then enjoying a humongous breakfast with BACON. Love me some bacon. I think I am following, but I will double check.

Yes there is something magical about that ugly old tree once she gets it all shinny with decorations that takes us back to the first year we got it. That and the cherry balls my mom get from the grocery store. They are hard candy on the outside and gum in the center. We get them left in our stocken by Santa Pop. Only hope Bella can have the same great memories we had. And Cat Daddy signing it's begining to look alot like christmas dididi..

We have several traditions here at Casita de Trash...where to start. We always have tamales on Christmas Eve, there are always sausage balls Christmas morning and it's the one time I make everyone sit together at the table.<br />The one tradition I keep trying to get rid of is this one white flocked tree I've had for about 20 years (no kidding). Every year for the past 5, I've tried not to get it out and every time, my grown children pitch a hissy fit. To them, it's just not the same without that smelly old tree. So I drag her out of the barn, load her up with sparkle and try not to notice that she tilts to the left...kinda like me! Hey, maybe that's why they love her so much!<br />Debbie<br />P.S. You know I love a good party and I wouldn't miss this one for the world.trash talkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17508579521854913297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376863375082953178.post-30938296611706202632009-11-10T07:31:11.862-05:002009-11-10T07:31:11.862-05:00Tami, I'm from the Mid-Ohio valley.

All the treasurers are beautiful. I am from Iowa and my Christmas traditions are giving my 5 grandchildren all a special ornament for their tree someday. I also love to sit at night and look at the Christmas tree all decorated and lite, it takes me back to my childhood and being so happy and excited. It is the most wonderful time of the year.

The best thing about blogger giveaways ...Hi, Tami! The best thing about blogger giveaways is the chance to hop over to someone's blog and meet a new friend! I found you through Dawn of The Feathered Nest--I am enjoying my visit to your blog--and your giveaway is so generous; the Christmas ornaments you paint are just gorgeous--you are very talented! I am from the Sacramento area of California, grew up in southern California, where, of course, we never had white Christmases, but we still had wonderful family traditions. One of my favorites is to have hot eggnog in a special cup when we decorate the tree. My dad started that when I was very small, and I have carried that tradition on with my own children and grandchildren. Have a wonderful day!

We always had a special Christmas Eve dinner with family & friends. Everyone would bring their favorite Christmas food, we'd exchange a couple gifts, listen to and sing songs, and often pull out a board game. Lots of wonderful memories of those times.<br /><br />Nita JoNita Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02763053063410716010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4376863375082953178.post-8229159834932127272009-11-09T01:00:11.367-05:002009-11-09T01:00:11.367-05:00What wonderful treasures!!!

Can't wait to spend some time looking at past posts to see what I've been missing. Our favorite holiday tradition is spending extra time with family and friends. As I'm sure most of you can agree, sometimes we get so tied up with everyday necessities we don't take the time to enjoy loved ones...so now is the time. One of my resolutions for next year is to take more time for others. Thanks for sharing with the world and I'll be back soon.
