🚨 ATTENTION MEMORY TREE FAM! 🚨

🏃‍♀️GRAB THOSE CORDS!

The snow and ground are finally melting just enough for YOU to get your extension cords and for ME to wrestle out the frozen trees 🌲

If you can, please hurry over and grab your cords while Mother Nature is giving us this tiny window of opportunity.

If you don’t make it before I do, no worries, I’ll collect as many as I can.

✨ IMPORTANT:
If your cords/tree are MARKED, I will absolutely have them safe and waiting for you ❤️

Thank you all for always being amazing, understanding, and so supportive.

And Annmarie McGowan your ornament was found by Tessie Winslow and is hanging on the vet tree!!🥰

Sooo…. I went out there with good intentions yesterday … and immediately realized this was NOT my day and it poured snow on me.
It was freezing & my toes and fingers absolutely resigned and the Vet Tree is standing strong while the 2 Santa trees stared at me from across the field like “you coming or nah?”
The present boxes are very wet, very smushed, and living their best soggy life.
The extension cords? Frozen solid. Like prehistoric artifacts. They may unfreeze by Wednesday and it hits a scorching 40 degrees (WOAH) basically bikini weather. Open the pools. 🏊‍♀️ we skipped spring people! I’ll be back out today 🙂
We are also on the hunt for a very special ornament … it’a white cap thay says “NAVY” . If it got hung on your tree after being blown off, it’owner is desperately looking for it!
Thank you for the patience, the laughs, and for loving this beautiful town festival as much as I do ❤️

Memory Trees Update 🌲
Today is the day I will be taking down the Veterans Tree, along with any other trees that are still up.

I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who participated, shared their memories, and helped make this season so meaningful. Thank you for honoring your loved ones, our veterans, and this beautiful community once again.

Keep watch for post! We will be looking for ideas and suggstions along with some volunteers for this coming year!

Until then … let the memories stay with us always. ❤️

✨ Happy New Year from the Memory Trees ✨

As we enter this new year, We want to wish every single one of you a happy, healthy, and safe New Year. May the memories you placed on these trees continue to live in your hearts all year long. Let the love, the stories, and the moments you shared here carry you forward.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being part of this beautiful community and for making this year’s Memory Trees so special. We will see you all next year for a bigger, better, and even more beautiful community festival.. WE promise 🤍

❄️ A quick and important note about tree pickup:
I know it’s cold, and for many of you it’s also a work day. If you’re having trouble getting your tree today, please, please text me so I know not to take it down & discard it. If you need a few extra days, that is absolutely okay 😊just communicate with me ❤️ we would like to see all the trees collectd by sunday.
Thank you allll again

🎄✨ Memory Trees Update ✨🎄

I hope everyone had a happy s and a very Merry Christmas. ❤️
With the weather we have coming, it’s been suggested that if you’re able, we begin taking down the Memory Trees before the 1st, just to make things a little easier before the ground freezes.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to every single person who supported the Memory Trees and helped make this year’s festival such a beautiful success. The love, the memories, and the community support were truly something special.
looking ahead, I would love to hear your comments, ideas, and suggestions for next year because with your help, we’re aiming for the 2nd best festival ever (because let’s be honest… this year was pretty hard to top 😉).

Wishing you all a Happy New Year filled with happiness .
Tina & Tessie

For me…it was coming down the stairs in the morning. The second I hit that one step where the mirror caught the reflection of our living room, I’d see the tinsel Santa had put on the tree, and my whole stomach would drop🥰For that one moment, the world looked, sounded, and even smelled different.
Pure childhood Christmas magic
