I’d like to share with you…

an ornament made by my husband’s Grandma. It’s hand carved and decorated. We have several of these hearts on our tree.


Thanks for taking this walk down memory lane with me.

Have a Merry Christmas!!

this train from my childhood tree. It always makes me think of my Uncle Bill. He worked as a brakeman for Burlington Northern for as long as I can remember. I’d wave at every caboose I’d see just in case he was in it! I miss him….he always could make me smile.

a garland the kids and I made. Ok..I know it’s not really an ornament and it’s not especially pretty but I love it anyway. I have to admit when I decided to do this craft project with them I had no idea how much prep work there would be. I had to dye different kinds of pasta with food coloring then set them aside to dry. Of course, this step took way longer than expected. Truth be told, I was ready to throw the whole project away but the kids were looking forward to it so much that I had to continue. We now have 2 strings of pathetically dyed pasta that grace our tree each year.

a laser cut stavkirke. I visited a stavkirke in Rapid City, SD several times. It was stunningly beautiful. Of course I may be a bit biased since I’m 100% Norwegian and my dad was a woodworker.

an early recycling project with a goofy saying. Man alive… I can’t believe I thought that was hysterical 15 yrs ago.

an ornament I painted in memory of my dog Smokey. He lived 17.5 years. He was given to me but he always loved my mom the most.
