One of my first White House Ornaments. My sister started the tradition in the 90's and my mom used to give one every year after. I haven't received one since my mom's passing but may start the tradition again.

Another beautiful handmade ornament.Please excuse the crappy photography. I didn't have time to adjust the lighting. I leave you tonight with an excerpt from my Christmas Joys book by Susan Branch. I love all her little books; she is such a talented artist and what I would give to live in a house like her's on Martha's Vineyard.
Peace,
Ann
Recipe for a Happy Christmas
Fill a house with equal parts of Love, Hope & Peace
Add the joy of children & the strength of older people
Season with the music of laughter & some mistletoe kisses
Warm before a crackling fire & serve with tidings of comfort & joy!
