I get so excited when we find just the perfect thing.  This year we found, ordered and received this new Precious Moment to add to our growing collection.  Its dated 2010 – Can you guess why its so perfect?  Well, if you remember, we took our first train ride together from Fairbanks to Denali, AK this past summer.  We will never forget that great experience.  Now he serves as our 2010 Precious Moments reminder.

Our annual Swarovski 2010 Star ornament arrived too!  We’re all caught up on this set.

Here’s one of the 2008 Lenox ornaments we just received.

Here’s another 2008 that just arrived – Now we need 2009 and 2010 from this collection and we’ll be all caught up.

Our tree is part of the fabric of our family Christmas tradition.  The ornaments represent each year we’ve been together and there will always be room for more.  Rumor has it we’re getting a new tree by next Christmas.

I picked up this candle (for the kitchen) while I was out and about yesterday.

I love the slight Christmas-y aroma that fills the air – just right.

To fluff and prepare for the birthday of The King would be my very favorite occasion to celebrate.  It’s a celebration of love and hope for all the world.

Blessings – Debbie
