Ornamental

Warning: this post is waaaaay outdated.

Every year we get a new Lenox ornament.  Since this was our first Christmas in our new home, I bought a personalized "First Christmas in our New Home" ornament.  We didn't have a tree this year, so I'm looking forward to putting it up next year. I didn't get the best picture of it, but you can basically see what it looks like.  This is our 4th Lenox ornament, which means our 4th Christmas as a married couple.
 I also bought Michael a Georgia Tech ornament.  We have several Arkansas ornaments, which go with Christmas colors a little bit more, but I decided we needed a GT one too.  (We'll have to find a special place for it, so that it doesn't stand out too badly on the tree.)
One last ornament I added to the collection this year was one that I made.  It is in honor of our half marathon.  Such an accomplishment deserves a yearly reminder!  I wrote 13.3 with red glitter on one side and then 2011 on the other.
Looking at these ornaments together it looks like my tree would be a total modge-podge, but I swear most of the ornaments are just red and green and look cohesive. 
So I know everyone has already put their decorations away for the season, but did you get any new ornaments?

  1. I got several My First Christmas ornaments for Graham (2 were gifts) and a Christmas ornament for Sam, so she'd be represented too. : )
