From hanging Christmas lights, candles in the windows, baking cookies, sharing Christmas Eve with friends, special ornaments, Christmas songs, giving and receiving gifts to Trains :)
One of my favorite traditions is setting up Christmas Trains. This is a new tradition for me - but not for my husband, it's been part of his Christmas his whole life. We didn't set up the trains last year as A was just learning to walk and it seemed like a dangerous proposition. This year, my husband set them up (new and improved) in a separate room...so they are easily rendered inaccessible if need be!
I love how they turned out! A was so excited to see the trains go all by themselves - and the real choo choo noise...such excitement!
Now it's time to work on trimming the tree :) I'll share some of our decorations next week. If you need ideas for decorations...check out some here!
Any old or new holiday traditions that you especially love?
I secretly want to start a Christmas Village but I have no idea where to start!
ReplyDeleteYour train village looks great! I know my train loving son would go nuts over something like that. Great tradition!
ReplyDeleteMy son would adore a Christmas train. I think he's still too young for one, though... I would end up with pieces scattered all over my house. Maybe next year! :)
ReplyDeleteGrowing up we set up my dads childhood trains every once in a while. I loved it growing up!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! My husband is a train guy as well so once he gets his table set up I will probably start a Christmas village for it :]
