awww I am sorry you lost the angel, and I know what you ,mean about making your self be in the chirstmas spirit
that is a great idea
same here after daddy passed away mama gave me the whole chirstmas tree with all the decorations to go with it... she did not put up a tree after daddy passed away, so to be home in the house were i was raised in and with a tree that belonged to mama and daddy is bitter sweet...
