Wow! We did have a weekend, didn’t we? Mine was certainly a blur—a fun blur—but definitely a blur! I think you’ll get a kick out of one thing that happened this weekend.
The backstory is that I have a relatively new neighbor who travels a lot. I’d been collecting his mail for several days, and on Saturday he popped over to retrieve it. I had ducked into the kitchen to grab his stack of mail when I heard him comment to my pooch, “I didn’t know your mom worked at the post office.” What in the world? Where did he get that idea? I soon found out. He was checking out my Christmas tree! I have several mailbox-type ornaments, not because I work for the post office though! It’s because I work at The Mailbox! How funny is that!
What does your holiday tree reveal about you?

Let’s see . . . I have an early childhood tree in my classroom. It’s filled with ornaments related to nursery rhymes, fairy tales, Dr. Seuss, etc. My students are fascinated by it.
At home, I have a figure skating tree. Before I moved to Texas, I was a figure skater. I have so many skating-related ornaments that I think I need another tree or two for those ornaments alone.
I also have a tree at home filled with ornaments that don’t fit any of my other tree themes. 😉
Does anyone else have theme trees? Please share!
Love the mailbox story. Too funny. My tree is full of teacher ornaments and ornaments picked by students. After all these years I have lots. Since my family loves lottery tickets each year we buy a number of instant games and I make a tree shape out of them. On Christmas day each family member takes a few and sees if they are a big winner. Sadly none yet.
How could I forget?! I also have a beach-theme tree in my house! 🙂
