Friday Favorites-Christmas Edition

I love looking at our tree full of ornaments and remembering the stories behind them...

When Brad and I first got married, whenever we would take a trip we would try to remember to get an ornament from that particular location-a small reminder of that special time.

This ornament is from Hawaii, where we went on our honeymoon.

We also have received very special ornaments from Brad's parents...this one was Pops' when he was growing up...



This shell angel was part of a set that we received for a wedding gift...


Then there are also the ones that the kiddos have made in school...so precious!


And the ones that are made by dear friends...

Now each year we try to get an ornament for each of the kiddos, that represents them in some way. For example, this year Abby got a horse ornament. Someday they will get to add these memories to their own trees!

All reminders of special times, places and people. How grateful I am to have a tree full of stories and precious memories:)


Happy Friday from Vienna!
