Since the early 80s Nell Bullard wrapped her home up like a HUGE Christmas Gift and continued doing so until her passing. Her kids, who sold us their childhood home, left this giant bow and ribbon for us in the attic just in case we wanted to carry on the tradition. We did! Let me present to you the Spieler's Christmas Present Home. It took Rob and my dad four hours to hang but it really paid off. In fact, we even put an identical wreath on the front door the way Nell used to, and this photo of our home today looks exactly like the photo of our home back in 1987 when it was featured on the front page of the Salisbury Post, our town's newspaper. We hope to carry on the tradition for years to come but we might have to create a new bow and ribbon that is more lightweight and weather friendly. Check back December 2013 for our updated design.
Merry Christmas!
Michelle-This is so neat. I can't believe you carried on the tradition and it looks grand!
