This Christmas journal, just out this year, is loaded with Susan's wonderfully charming and creative art work. The volume is well organized and provides lots of space for recording activities, memories and other seasonal details. Space is also provided for special photos and keepsakes so you can thoroughly record your holidays for five years. It makes a wonderful heirloom quality addition to your family library. A perfect gift for the scribe, scrapbook fan or creative member of your family and an absolute must for us Susan Branch fans!

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!

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!

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

Christmas Memories is a beautiful book with typically lovely Susan Branch style, which I love ! However, I was looking for something with more decorating/craft ideas than this has. I showed it to my mom and she was crazy about it Sooooo- guess who gets the book and gets to enjoy journalling about Christmas activities.

All in all -- this worked out great ! I ended up with a cool present for my Mom.

My Christmas Memories box of "stuff" was getting out of hand, as I always planned to organize it later. Later is here & it just keeps growing. It may be too late to save me, but I want our childrens family's to at least have a pattern of what to save & how.

i love this keepsake book. i filled it up this past year quickly with all of the silly details that made our family celebration so memorable! just bought 2 as gifts for friends!

This was given to us as a wedding present in 2001 and I am returning to buy our third book to make sure we don't run out of pages for future years! Each Christmas it is such a joy to look through the memories of the years before, and watch our family grown from 2 to 3 to 4! It's very simple, and a great way to preserve memories for those of us too unskilled or too busy for scrapbooking.

Then buy this! In essence, this is a five-year Christmas scrap book where the pages are all done for you- you just have to fill in the blanks, add your own photos, etc. I have bought so many of these already... for family, for friends and for me :) What a wonderful gift for people you know who love to document special memories.

(If you keep your eyes peeled you can find these books for quite a reasonable price- I found 2 at Borders at $2 each! Almost a steal really...)

Helps you write it all down and keep a written log for generations to come. I have filled two books now and love that there are leading questions to prompt you to answer questions and give answers. Also good for someone that really doesn't want to journal, but would like to write down special memories for the year, especially Christmas! You can also personlize it as well . . .
