Christmas was my mom's favorite time of the year.  She went all out decorating for Christmas.  Many times they had two trees.  She loved a big fire in the fireplace and a big crowd at the table.  There was always room and food for one more.   Lots of laughs, hugs, gifts and love all around.  My parent's big Christmas is one of my fond memories and one of the things I'll miss most now that they are gone.

I love you mom and dad!
