Our Tree

I love decorating our tree every year because every ornament on it was either a gift or has been inherited from someone special. I know it's hard to see from the picture, but this is a 9-foot tree and is completely filled from front to back with anything imaginable. Tim has an ornament from every year since he was little and my grandma Carol gave me an ornament for several years before she passed away. I was lucky enough to get some of her ornaments, so I have those too. Plus, I have the ones that I made in grade school (Tim makes fun of my 80's hair every single year). For the past 5 years or so my sister and I have been exchanging ornaments every year, and my kids are both getting new ones every year too. It is so fun to look at each one as we put them on and remember where they came from. I can't even imagine what our tree will look like in several years, we'll have to get a 12-foot tree just to hold them all!
