The Day Before December 1

6-22-10 399

I have no excuses. It's been way too long since I posted here, Thanksgiving has come and gone, and now the December holidays are upon us.

I would love to have these pretty ornaments to decorate the tree this year, but seeing as how I can't even manage to post on a regular basis, I'm not going to pretend that I will have the time to craft these hand-folded ornaments. But I wanted to share this tree with you that I came across at friend's house in Vietnam. Her son made these a few years back, and as he is currently serving in the military, they serve as a daily reminder of him.

I think the sentiment is just as sweet (if not more so) as the ornaments themselves. Here's to remembering both our loved ones as we start the holiday season and celebrating the little, beautiful things that life has to offer.
