More memories. My Dad give me the toy solider many years ago. The drum is one of the man ornaments we have from when we lived in India

Crazy day today. One of my co-workers called me and said come to my office and bring your camera – sun is peeking out of clouds and sky is amazing – it would be a great picture of the day. I grabbed my small camera and when I got to her office I discovered that I needed a new battery pack. Oh no!!! So then I grabbed my IPhone but couldn’t get a really good picture. Stayed at work a little longer than usual tonight and then stopped and got a new battery pack. When I got home I told my husband that I had to get a new battery pack and he said – you know we have an extra one in the drawer. On well – now I have a spare. So had to settle for picture of a tree ornament.
The tree is up and decorated and it’s beautiful. It’s about 7 feet tall and big and bushy – just the way I like it. This is a close up view of one section of the tree – picked this section because of the Peace ornament. The ornaments all have special meaning – some we picked up on vacation, some from when we lived overseas. some were gifts. There is even one ornament that came from Michael’s grandfather
