It is a wonderful time of year for families and children. You will start your own family traditions now. It is so much fun.Lillyhttp://www.lillyslife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517942552412644457.post-69677294249948283222012-12-03T12:15:07.202-06:002012-12-03T12:15:07.202-06:00Something that my mother did while my brother and ...Something that my mother did while my brother and I were growing up was to take us shopping sometime during the first week of December just to put out one ornament each that would be placed on our tree. Mind you, we did not go to Walmart or Kmart for these ornaments. We went to stores like Dillard's, May D&F (later name Fuller's), Joslin's, etc. These are department stores that were in line with Macy's and Gimbals's when they were exclusively in N.Y. These were not cheap ornaments. My brother and I looked forward to this outing every year.Glynis Jollyhttp://www.glynisj.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517942552412644457.post-13535878819144287802012-11-30T10:38:28.291-06:002012-11-30T10:38:28.291-06:00The Elf on the Shelf "kit" started a few...The Elf on the Shelf "kit" started a few years ago and took off like a rocket. My daughter has been using it for the last 2 years and the kids (2 and 5) think its great fun to see where the elf is when they get up in the morning.<br /><br />I think it's nice to start your own unique traditions with your baby so they have a special something to feel connected to the holidays and their families.Cperzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09062444081488414888noreply@blogger.com
