day twelve...reflecting

{christmas 1994 - our first house - hoyt street in buffalo}

do you not just love this picture...the camera was balanced on the edge of the pool table in the parlor...yes, i had a pool table in the middle of our house...i moved into a true bachelor pad...love the picture on the wall & the basket of pine cones...not too many ornaments on the tree back then but it was a huge tree - very tall i remember...i bought steve a briefcase that year...do they even make them anymore?? we got a lenox holiday truck ornament from mom & dad that year - hence the start of our collection...i'm sure i could tell you all the details of the holiday season back then because i used to journal everyday/everything (obviously before children) and all those journals are packed away in a box that i refuse to open because i would probably lose two weeks just sitting and reading each and every page...but i know they exist...must be the reason i enjoy blogging all the silly little things of each day...heres to making memories daily...heres to remembering them too...peace.
