I guess...I just LOVE your Nostalgic Sundays Becky! I guess I am a few years younger, born in 65, but I remember candles like that snowman too - might even have one - and a santa, but I think I got them from my hubby's mother. I would not burn them either. <br /><br />Reading the comments is almost as fun as reading your post! I love the old pictures! And your tree is gorgeous - I have seen some of those indented ornaments but don't own any. My tree is up and the lights are on, but no one seems to want to hang out with me and finish. So feeling a bit homesick as in Carol's quote - I miss the years when I was as excited as the kids were to decorate the house and when they were at least excited to do something with me :) <br /><br />I am kind of crazy right now with crafting, baking, candy making, and some shopping so may not make it back before Christmas so wanted to wish you a blessed Christmas.

I got a special dispensation to take her across the street to West School in Kennett, Missouri, after Christmas vacation. I was so proud of her! About the icicles, did you have special instructions to place them one at a time on the branches instead of throwing them? Of course, I was such a little lady (better known as prissy-pants) that I wouldn't have thought of tossing a handful -- that would have been one of my brothers who was being admonished! Thank you for the memories, Becky!Annie Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503911310958759533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-77393120929543641372011-12-19T16:40:51.139-06:002011-12-19T16:40:51.139-06:00Enjoyed your pictures of Christmases past.
