The Christmas Pins

I have a tradition this time of year.  I have a small or large depending how you look at it collection of holiday pins.

Beginning on December 1st I try and wear a different pin each day to work.  On the weekends I also wear them but sometimes I will have to repeat one I have worn during the week.

So here are the ones I have worn so far this month.  I apologize for the bad photos.  Currently I am using the iPhone.  I am looking for a proper camera though.

You will find snowmen as reocurring theme in my life
This one is painted on the back of a domino.  My parents taught me how to count by teaching me to play dominos.  I remember once in 1st grade the neighbors coming over and asking if I could be their 4th for a game of dominos.  My parents let me go and I felt so grown up playing the game with all these grownups.


My friends Betty and Aldo gave this to me one year for Christmas



and this is the one I wore today

So stay tuned and I will share more during the rest of the month.
