Ornaments

Since Aaron and I were married... we have kept a Christmas tradition of getting a new ornament each year.  It's something his family did growing up and something we have really grown to love.  It kind of marks the beginning of the holiday season as we buy our ornaments and then pull out all of the previous years ornaments and do a bit of reminiscing.  There tends to be a lot of Christmas spirit, silliness and excitement all mixed in together. 

 Andrew went with a simple ornament with his initial on it.  He had a heck of a time picking this year.  This is perfect this year though because Andrew is kind of obsessed with his soccer medals.  This reminds me of those medals hanging in his room.
Aaron picked that puffy Santa guy.  It was actually designed by a child receiving cancer care at MD Anderson.  We like being able to contribute to a good cause and get cute ornaments all at once.
I picked a chocolate bar because hey what says Christmas better than chocolate?
 Sam was crazy about his airplane.  He is 3 and planes, trains and automobiles are all the rage.
 Lizzy picked a pink striped zebra.  It's pink.  It's cute.  It's all Lizzy.

What a great tradition! We will have to adapt that into our own traditions as well! Thanks for sharing!
