Since today we officially observed the Feast of the Epiphany in the Catholic faith, it was time to take down the last of the Christmas decorations. Sigh! It is usually a bittersweet moment for me when I put away the tree and ornaments. I am not one of those perfectly coordinated, themed tree kind of people. It is a mishmash of homemade and store bought - some here in the U.S. and some in other countries. I can tell you where I got each one.
For me it is a memory tree.

| A few of the homemade treasures |
 |
| I have given my husband an ornament every year we have been together - he may get his own tree soon. |
J also gets an ornament every year
 |
| Some of the ornaments from those that are now watching over us from heaven. |
 |
| And somewhere hidden in the back of the tree every year, this little fellow hides - just because he makes me smile. |
And now everything is put away for another 11 months.
See you soon, my friend.
