We have had our share of fun and memories from past Christmas Seasons. I love your description of your lovely home and especially the knitting needles. There is something magical about having out your knitting needles and a skein of beautiful yarn in the winter months. Can hardly wait for your next post. Your posts always touch my heart and make me smile inside. Enjoy the holidays season and hug Edward and Apple for me. Just love looking at them both.ConnieLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09366624592937337403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-38954775698942008402015-11-18T18:26:07.805-05:002015-11-18T18:26:07.805-05:00As usual, i just adore your way with words,Pamela....As usual, i just adore your way with words,Pamela.

One of my "gifts" that I am so looking forward to is all of your holiday posts...I hope they are abundant and chocked full of details and pictures of the cottage!

When we were children it all happened over perhaps two or at the most three weeks. Our tree would go up (the same on each year, brought in again from the garden) and ornaments treasured and wrapped in tissue paper to keep them from breaking as they were fragile (I still remember the little silver house) would lovingly go on the tree in the sitting room window. We never knew what we were getting for Christmas - it was always a surprise. The farmer remembers getting a sledge on year and never knew where his parents had hidden it. Oh for those old, magical days.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-36721325114532003952015-11-18T03:14:23.396-05:002015-11-18T03:14:23.396-05:00You obviously are talking about Atlanta, GA and th...You obviously are talking about Atlanta, GA and the Rich's Department Store traditional lighting the great tree that stood atop the bridges between the two Rich's stores. My late husband and I drove to Atlanta from Macon sometime in the 1960s as I recall with our three little girls to witness that event. It was wonderful and well worth the attempt. Atlanta has never been the same since that wonderful department store, Rich's, closed its doors.
