Preserve your Keepsakes in a Time Capsule
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A time capsule is a fun and simple way to celebrate an important milestone moment in your family or personal life. It is a great way to involve your family and friends. It is a way to reflect on a past year. History is important so we can learn from it, so why not pass it on to the future generation. Where would we be if we did not have any historical information written down or recorded? Traditions are a way to unite all generations.
Traditions
A time capsule is a great way to keep traditions alive. Preserve your keepsakes in a time capsule. As Christmas approaches, I look forward to going to my parent’s house. There is something about reminiscing and starting the holiday season with a ritual you look forward to each year. The smell of Christmas cookies to heirloom recipes lingering in the air is so sweet. Many families like to pick out the Christmas tree together. How special would it be to cut off one piece of the bark of your first Christmas tree when you are born or married starting your new family with your signatures on it. My family loves to gather around the table playing board games, watching classic movies like “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Decorating the Christmas tree while listening to Christmas music and the crackling fireplace, brings back so many sentimental feelings. This is always a time for my family members to get the warm fuzzies inside us, as we all share laughs, tears, and stories about the ‘good old days.’
So what…
Traditions help us pass on values and culture to the next generation. A time capsule helps provide a sense of family history, identity, belonging, togetherness, and help increase family bonds. To express how important traditions are, just try and get a fake Christmas tree one year, if you are a family who has always bought a real tree. It makes you feel uncomfortable, and some family members may even revolt. They did in our family. That again, is what a time capsule is for…to help keep traditions and memories that matter, alive for generations to come.
Save your precious Christmas memory ornaments.

Everyone lives in this fast, instant, hectic world and we all many times let these important traditions fade. Instead, let’s take life by the hand and pass it on to our future children in our family through the use of traditions written down, with photos, recordings, recipes, or other meaningful items to put in a time capsule. Bring comfort and joy to your family this year by making a time capsule together. What a bonding, milestone moment that will be.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_single_image image=”2561″ img_link_target=”_self”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
