A holiday tradition
Back when the kids were in elementary school, they made snowflake ornaments with their pictures in the center. I don't recall what grade they did this in but it really isn't relevant to the story anyway. These are the ornaments that they made and every year they continue to go on the tree
Amanda decorates the tree most of the time and it's become a bit of a holiday tradition that her snowflake goes front and center on the tree while her brothers goes somewhere near the back. In the next picture I have them circled where each of them are
At least she thinks enough of her brother to still make his snowflake visible.
Oh, your tree is gorgeous with this blue! What a great memonto to see your kids faces in each year!
ReplyDeleteI detect a little sibling rivalry there, LOL
ReplyDeleteThe snowflakes are wonderful and what sweet memories they bring.
I think that's awesome you still have the treasured ornaments.
ReplyDeletenow I am wondering is your son ever moves his to the front and hers to the back? I think its wonderful Amanda comes over and helps decorate and that you still have the ornaments. your house is beginning to look a lot like Christmas. ho ho ho
ReplyDeleteMy kids made those, too. I still love them. (Both the girls and the snowflakes...lolol)
ReplyDeleteI have ornaments like that for my kids too! I don't blame Amanda. Brothers were a pain to grow up with!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute tree. Ornaments/memories like that are what make the tree so special.
ReplyDeleteThis post reminds me of doing decorations with my son. We had such fun.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥
That's a really nice tradition. I have a boxed filled of things that the kids made when they were young.
ReplyDeleteNice that you saved the ornaments all these years later.Your tree looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat’s cute, sweet tradition.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice tradition, and what a great daughter!
ReplyDeleteThose are sweet keepsakes! We haven't had a tree for years. I enjoy looking at yours though.
