3191ArticlefuschniktLove this. I can relate to hand-me-down toys and Goodwill clothes. My parents saved money wherever they could. Now-a-days, our church does the giving tree thing, too. Every year my family grabs two, a boy and a girl. At our church it is pretty anonymous, so inviting anybody to dinner would be out of the question. Sometimes I wonder what the reaction would be to the gifts we put together. Mostly, though, I'm just happy to be giving. I'd love to see this awesome picture you mention sometime.  Dec 12, 2015View
3192Articlevkimo@fuschnikt Here you go, its a painting by Jaro Hess in the 30s I believe. Its a map of the fairytale kingdoms. So much going on in it and I would look at it for long strands of time just taking it all in. <img src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2335/1189/1600/jaro.jpg">Christmas YuleogyDec 12, 2015View

3194ArticleNLoganWho wouldn't cry for joy opening up Castle Grayskull? How I Remember ChristmasDec 12, 2015View
3195ArticleNLoganYeah that one hits right in the childhood. Angel trees were always anonymous here as well. Never heard of the benefactor giving the stuff personally. Christmas YuleogyDec 12, 2015View
3196Articlemickyarber@NLogan....I didn't include the picture because I couldn't find it, but I have a picture of me opening it while crying. In the picture, it doesn't look like they are tears of joy though. Almost like sadness or something. It's really weir thinking back on, because I just can't place what was going through my mind at that time. @Vaporman...when time travel get's invented, I'll pick you up and we'll head back for a week around Christmas and you can see how much fun we had then!How I Remember ChristmasDec 12, 2015View
3197ArticlemickyarberI think this may be my favorite story I've read here on Retro-Daze. I read it while Away in a Manger was just playing in the background, it it came darn close to bringing a tear to my eye. That or it's from all the saw dust in my shop today. Just an excellent read. I think I'll be reading it to my daughters along with The Night Before Christmas this year. Thanks for sharing.Christmas YuleogyDec 12, 2015View

3199Articlevkimo@mickyarber - Thanks for the kind words! I just read your piece and equally enjoyed it. You mentioned you make wood crafts, do you have a website where you sell them?Christmas YuleogyDec 12, 2015View
3200ArticlevkimoGet me a ticket on that time machine too! I like the tradition of taking your daughters gift shopping on separate days. My daughter is 1, so might be a few years. @Vapor I have XM as well and have channe 13 Holly and 18 X Mas Traditions, are they any different?How I Remember ChristmasDec 12, 2015View
