Journaling: I’m not sure how or when my parents starting buying the annual ornaments, but I do know it has to be my favorite Christmas tradition. Their idea was when we moved out, we’d have some meaningful decorations for our trees. I have all sorts of ornaments to decorate my tree with showcasing things I loved throughout my childhood and into college. My mom skipped a year once Amy, Joe, Melis and I after Dad died and found that we were all disappointed at the end of a beloved traditional. She immediately started up again the following year. Todd and I mix ornaments from our travels in. He didn’t have any ornaments at all when we started dating. He knew he was “in the family” when he started getting his own.

That really is such a wonderful tradition and one I do for my children. It is lovely to read that you appreciate it - encourages me that one day they will too. I love your photos of each of the ornaments. Great layout. Thanks for participating in the challenge!
