Show N Tell!

I love decorating the house with things from our past or pieces of our heritage.  I thought I would share some different things this Christmas season from that! 

The first picture is a painting my husband did in the 80's his senior year in high school.  He painted this for his mom as a Christmas gift, you can see the inscription on it below.  She passed away this year so all of these things I'm sharing today remind us of her this Christmas.  The picture don't do this painting justice because of trying to take the picture through the frame but it is so beautiful, my husband is quite the artist!

The next two are ornaments my mother in law made, they are now priceless to us!  We had many more and several years ago our tree fell over with help of our kitties and most of them broke.

My husband just loves this Santa, his mom put it out every year.  It's so 70's.  It reminds my husband of his childhood!

I like the painting your husband did.
It would make nice Christmas cards if you printed up some through Walmart or somewhere else.
