Decorating Our Tree
Okay, so this post is REALLY late, but better late than never! Every year since I was born, my mother has gotten me an ornament to put on the Christmas tree. It always signified something important that had happened the previous year. My mom still gives me an ornament each year and sometimes I get another one for myself! I have also carried this tradition on with Little M for the past two years. Here is a little chronicle of me decorating our tree this year and some of my more important ornaments.
The tree before decorations {check out our very fancy gate to keep Little M from pulling all the ornaments off, haha}
All the ornaments
Of course I have several Giant's ornaments!
Patriotic / military ornaments
Our two bulldog ornaments...I realized this year that I have none for Shiba Inu...I'll have to rectify that next year!

Skip's and my first Christmas together 2005
I once wrote to Santa and asked that if he was real to open all my heart ornaments on Christmas morning
He did!

I love your tradition...we have the same one in our house and we also have the exact "first Christmas together" ornament and we also purchased ours in 2005!
ReplyDeleteI love going through all of our ornaments every year and going down memory lane! Little M looks adorable in her jersey!
ReplyDeleteI love your tree! I think it's too cute you had to put up the baby gate around it.
