DAUGHTER has a
Tree Trimming Party
every year
and this year, we had dinner,
trimmed the tree,
listened to piano music..
and we had egg nog and pecan pie waiting for us and we were too full to eat it !!!
DREW and his mom trying to get the angel
on top of that tall, tall tree...

DEEDS played JINGLE BELLS for us....
really put us in the Christmas spirit...
That's my handsome BROOKS, listening in on sister's playing..

FAMILY...
Oh, how we love 'em....
Pretty BRYNNA, adding even MORE bling....
I wanted to share my silver cross collection....

What a wonderful post, BJ. Your family is precious and the tree trimming tradition is sweet.
I love your little whimsical nativity. The smile on Baby Jesus' face is wonderful.
I don't think I've ever seen peach turnovers in my market...just apple and cherry.
Have a fabulous week! La
Love your tree trimming party and what a sweet nativity, it makes me smile.
This sounds like a lot of fun! Next year maybe I'll have my own tree trimming party. I love your cute little nativity and silver crosses. Thanks for sharing all these wonderful "reasons for the season". :)
What lovely Nativity scenes. I have one here in Florida and one up north and love them both. What a wonderful family time you all had. I hadn't bought the Pepperidge Farm turnovers in a long time. Thanks for reminding me about them. Have a great week.

I love your little whimsical nativity set. I love your daughters huge tree,I miss putting mine up.
I have never seen the Pepperidge Farms pastries,will have to look for them.
I looked for the stretch minima
and can't find it.
Your wooden nativity is precious. I would love a Willow Tree nativity as well. I love her work. It looks like you have been having a wonderful time this season enjoy your beautiful family. Those treats look very tempting..Yummy!
aww I love your wooden nativity! I have a nativity under my tree that ive had my entire life and my mom had before that so it means a lot to me. and my mom just suprised me today by buying me a Willow Tree nativity set so I was even more suprised to see a nativity link party. I'm so excited to show it off!
I think this is the first post I've seen about Jesus being the reason we celebrate. Thanks for the reminder. Love for our families is what makes the holiday so fun to celebrate together:>)
Your Nativity is adorable. I am in a contest to win a Willow Nativity at a local gift shop but I may just buy one as it is gorgeous and big.
Love all your photos. I have a nativity like your cute one. Love holiday traditions. Family is so important this time of year and always.
Love your silver crosses. Just beautiful. PS couldn't help but notice rooster picture in the background-how about showing those off sometime?
Love the nativity scenes and the crosses - everything is gorgeous!
I'm in the mood for turnovers and ice cream now! Lovely post. And your nativity is very cute.
I wish I could have dropped by during all this cooking and decorating. However, I love those turnovers in any flavor. In fact, I probably eat too many.
I love that sweet little set too, so cute! The party looks like fun, you have a beautiful family, BJ!
Your post was wonderful! I love that little set...so cute!
Enjoyed reading all this! Love the adorable whimsical Nativity! Reminds me that I have one too and forgot to post it!
Can you believe I posted three times today! I hope you will come see all of them!

No wonder you spoil those grandchildren so! How wonderfully talented and great help they are! Thank you for sharing your family and traditions with us!
Fondly,

You have a beautiful family and that looks like so much fun!! What fabulous taste you have and I love all the gorgeous Nativity scenes. I would also LOVE that Willow Tree set. :)
Oh BJ, it looks like you all had so much fun!!!.. and I LOVE the little wooden-whimsical nativity you have!.. So CUTE!! Wishing you lots more holiday fun as the big day gets closer! ((hugs)) ~tina
I have the Willow Tree nativity and absolutely love it. I buy a couple of pieces every year and the only thing I have missing now is the stable, stars and camel. Very expensive but I wait until it comes on sale:-) Love your whimsical nativity, so adorable.
It sounds like so much fun to have a tree trimming party and I so enjoyed seeing the pictures of your beautiful family decorating their tree. xoxo
The reason for the season lies in the manger. Yet, the family together, singing, eating and enjoying their company i so special, too. Yours is a beautiful family!
Loved this post BJ. Love the crosses....the connection of the nativity and the cross is an amazing one. I love the willow nativity too and you can add me to the list of one who wants one :)
CHRISTmas Blessings!
Gail
There is just something magical about the simplicity of a solid white set!! I love it! Wonderful reason for the season!
