- New traditions for Christmas
Kate Lambdin loves Christmas, but this year she and her family must celebrate the holiday in a rental house, without the familiar ornaments and surroundings of the past years. The Lambdins’ home was among the 254 destroyed in the Angora fire last June. But Kate is determined to keep the Christmas spirit.
As the family rebuilds, all that remained of their old house was the mailbox. So on a cold afternoon, Kate, her sister Anna, mother Paula and father Larry came together to decorate their mailbox.
See the slideshow of Kate Lambin.
