"Every year for Christmas I make Olivia and Jackson, my twin grandchildren, an advent calendar.

Each calendar is created from 24 different single socks – little girl's socks for Olivia and little boy socks for Jackson.
The socks each have the date in fabric numbers ironed on the front and the individual stockings are hung from a long ribbon tied to the foot of their bed … one week at a time.

 
Each morning they wake up and then head straight to their stockings to find the tiny gift that is hidden inside the stocking of the day.
I know that I love finding the tiny treasures and filling all of those little stockings as much as they do "opening" them every morning during December".

  "One of my favorite holiday traditions sits atop a pine pole tree in my front room. A tree that is filled with little paper mache houses and other vintage ornaments. She is a Noma Christmas Angel circa 1940. She belonged to my beloved Grandma Wayment, and was a treasured part of Christmas while growing up. It just wasn't Christmas until the angel was lovingly placed on top of the tree. When her silver and white paper dress started to wear, Grandma sewed a new one of pink felt, complete with little pink pearls. Oh there were a couple of years when a star tried to take her place, but she always seemed to find her way back to the top of our family tree. It was there she stayed for 40 plus years until my Grandmother passed away. What a sad Holiday that was. It just wasn't the same without her, and it still isn't 24 years later. What I do have to bring back those wonderful memories  is my Angel who, every Christmas, will always be on the top of my pine pole tree. When Christmas is over, I bring her back up to my office. She has a prominent position on top of my bookcase so I can keep the holiday spirt with me always and remember the treasured memories of years past".
