I'm always adding things or moving things around.

As for the Christmas tree, I use the same ornaments every year plus any new ones that I've bought. I collect Hallmark ornaments and have a lot to go on the tree. I think that the designer trees are pretty but they just don't have the memories to go with them. The kids always have their favorites and, of course, there's Rachel who is our Christmas tree angel. She's a porcelain doll that I made from a kit. I'm always for making memories.

Diana I love the Hallmark ornaments, I have collected them since I first got married, and continued on through the years for my children. Two years ago I decided to stop and saved them for my children. I started a Victorian tree , but the Hallmark are very memoriable to me my mom use to buy certain ones and she is deceased now. So those are special.
