This is a picture of my real Christmas tree! It’s a 4 foot prelit tree I got at Walmart one year with a giftcard my daughter had given me for my birthday in November. Since I had the giftcard it only cost me 25cents! So I fell a couple of months ago and broke my left knee on both sides! So honestly it was so depressing I put my Christmas tree in my bedroom just to cheer me up in October!
Now it’s almost time for Christmas! Christmas is my favorite holiday! I have 3 teenage grandchildren and two toddler grandchildren! The teenagers and my adult children I give them money for Christmas because honestly I have no idea all they have to even guess at anything to buy them! So that’s easy! Then the littles are so much fun to buy toys , games and funny books that will make them laugh!
Then my daughter and her boyfriend cook a wonderful Christmas meal! That’s our Christmas! Just simple and enjoyable and love of good food!
So this year don’t go broke or in huge debt for Christmas ! People never remember the gifts! They remember the laughter the food the games played or a football game watched just the memories of spending time with family and friends!
So this year make those memories! Take lots of pictures and just enjoy the day!
