Advent Calendar of Christmas Memories Grab Bag

You can tell the times of the season are here, just from this!

And especially THIS!

The neighbor drives a snowplow for the city.  Do neighbors get favors????

On the way home from shopping I missed two great foto ops. So I went back to get the one and the other "left". The "other" was 4 of Santa's deer in my daughter's front yard. They ran in front of my car, so I was glad I was going slowly! I saw them all in my daughter Jamie's yard, and I had my camera, but they left before I was ready to "shoot" a picture or them. But the other foto op was a highly decorated street not too far away. So I went back.  Here it is!

The photo does it no justice...

Is this the Griswold's Christmas street? I always wondered where they lived!

The subject today was "Grab Bag".  Or anything I want.  So today will be a blast from the past for me, with some old family photos.  This one is teenage Jamie.

This is me and our dog Fonzie. She didn't like kids at all.  I guess that was because "she" was our first kid! And she would have prefered things stayed status quo.

Here are 2 happy kids.

Someone didn't get what he wanted???

Christmas Day was spent at Grandma and Grandpa Nishimoto's in S. Jordan.  They liked a flocked tree back in the day!

This was the day of the "real" tree.  But hey, where are all the decorations???

Sitting and waiting for Santa or sitting in the corner????

Santa in California.

At Omi's.

My Christmas school elf on a shelf~actually risers, but close!  Back row, red hat by the tall guy.

Check out Santa's eyebrows

And that's it for today.  Times have changed, we have changed but the memories are fun to recall!

Merry Christmas!
