Become a "preserver" of memories

Reviewed by Lori Plach for Reader Views (10/07) "But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart." (Luke 2:19NIV) What a marvelous event she had to ponder in her heart. What are your favorite Christmas memories? Do you remember all the particular details of that special time? Don't you wish you would have a book where you could write down special memories so that just by reading them later on, all those wonderful memories could come back, without having to rely on your memory? Imagine the fascination of the children when they read about when Mom and Dad were young or they were just youngsters. Susan Branch has created just the keepsake book for your favorite five Christmases. Remembering your last Christmas or New Years with a special family member or special friend are just a couple of ideas she presents. Preserving memories for years to come is just what this book is terrific for. There is a place for traditions, movies of that year, moments, humorous happenings and a picture of the tree which adorned your house could be kept. There are very beautiful illustrations throughout this spiral-bound album for you to enjoy as you prepare it from year to year. Even if you aren't a scrapbooker, you too can become a `preserver of memories.' We don't have all the special times and the miracle of the first Christmas like Mary did, but we all have our own special "Christmas Memories."

Wonderful book for Christmas memories....

This is my second book, I love this book and hope to get one every 5 years! It's a great way to save all our wonderful Christmas memories, places to put photos,write notes and share your wonderful experiences for years to come. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys scrapbooking but doesn't have the time...it's done for you except what you put in...love it

Excellent Legacy to Someday Leave

Although our 2 children are still very small, we already love to flip through the pages of this book and look at the first year when our oldest was a baby. This book records 5 years of Christmas memories and is a treasure in our home. Each year in full of areas for pictures, attaching keepsakes, and recording memories that would otherwise get forgotten with the passage of time. There is also a pocket in the far back to keep other treasures in as well, such as letters to Santa, etc. We have completed the first 4 years and I intend on buying another copy after we complete the 5th year in December 2006. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to preserve memories!

Wonderful Christmas Memory Book!

I must say I purchased this book in 2001 for my husband and I to record every Christmas together from 2001-2005. And have grown fond of this book. It has places for your card, stamp, photo's of your family, tree, decorations and all your favorite things including funny things that happen like when my brother got stuck under the tree one year! I've grown so fond of it that I'm back to order 2 more of these books now to enjoy from 2006 through 2013! If you want something wonderful to record your favorite christmas memories or some type of great gift to give those whom seem to get sentimental during Christmas this is the book you need! Great way to preserve special Christmas memories that otherwise might be forgotten and will be a great Heirloom for generations to come. This has been my most cherished book of all time and I'm sure it'll be yours too. comes with pockets to hold keepsakes, places to jot down special memories, great illustated pages and themes that only Susan Branch can deliver!
