My mom's sister, Judy, made this holiday tree for Mom probably 25 years ago. The tree was a Christmas gift which originally included Christmas "suckers" handmade of bread dough. Subsequent Christmases brought additional sucker sets: Halloween, Thanksgiving, Valentine's and Easter. Mom sent this treasure to us a while back, and the kids have really enjoyed it.
The other day, I had promised Hyrum and Ruthie that we would pull out the Easter suckers, but we ran out of time before bedtime. So the Easter Bunny put it up for us. (Ruthie says she drove her multi-colored pastel car to our house.) Watching Hyrum and Ruthie's faces light up the next morning was priceless.
