{Christmas Ornament Show & Tell 2015}

To be honest, I didn't put out all of our most sentimental and precious ornaments this year. I remembered that I would have 2 five year old boys in my house every day that love to throw things and have sword fights. So, for the sake of not breaking those I chose to keep them safely packed away this year.

However, these are some of my favorite that are on our tree.


Our first family ornament:

Mason's first Christmas {2010} and first time meeting Santa. This is before Santa lifted him over his head and he started crying!

Our ornament before we knew that Mason was going to be a boy {2009}. Also a gift from Mason's parents.

Both of these are from various trips to the Christmas tree farm.

This Shasta camper. Camping is one of our favorite things to do as a family and I dream of owning a Shasta one day. Preferably a turquoise one with original interior, but I wouldn't say no to a red one either.

Mason picked out this snowman a couple of years ago. I actually tried to talk him out of it because I thought it was creepy. But it has grown on me and is actually one of my favorites. It has a vintage feel to it.

Nate's mom and I made these wine cork reindeer ornaments together one year. We had a good time making them.

Also from Mason's first Christmas. And also a gift from Nate's parents.

Mason and I read the Christmas story together a couple of years ago and then created this ornament. I adore it.

  1. Our First Family Christmas is a family of snowmen too! Hehe. That peanut ornament is too darling. I'm noticing a lot of red, is your tree mostly red ornaments or a mix of everything?
