My decorating is done!

I did a "quick compose" but the photos don't seem to upload...so here they are. I loved decorating. I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I did in putting the decor together! Happy Holidays!

If you see a good many "eggs" on my tree it is because my Mom used to make each of us (my siblings) two each for each year as our gift from her. My tree is full now...and I am beginning to pass them on to my two kids so they can enjoy them now. Each year I let them take one of their choosing from my tree to place on their own tree. Who knows? They may get them all before I go to the "great beyond"....but that will be okay as I would like to know that they have enjoyed them. What handmade item has been handed down from YOUR family through the years? It would be neat to have a thread here that shows many generations of "hand me downs"....so to speak. Let me hear from you.

Don't think my photos came through....will add them here....

Here is what is happening with me ....got my decorations done and in love with it! Here are some photos of the outside of my condo and my tree....hope you like it as much as I did in doing it all! Happy Holidays to all!
