Another Tradition?

This being our first Christmas together, Eric and I didn't have very many decorations to put on the tree. However, we did have an ornament decorating kit that I got on sale last year after Christmas. I thought, "Hey, this would make a great tradition. We can do something crafty AND increase our ornament collection!" After seeing the end product, I may have to reconsider.

Eric started decorating the snowman. Why is it blue? I don't know. When he finished coloring he said, "Why did I make it blue?!" At least it's unique!! Great job Eric.

I didn't have a lot to work with when I decorated my ornament. It was just so round and empty. We never found a first Christmas ornament that we liked so I tried to make it relate to that. Nevertheless, I'm still set on buying one.

So should we keep trying to decorate every year or just give up!?! I don't know.

I think the tradition is a great idea! If we can keep it up... By the way, you and your ornament look great, me and my ornament... not so much...

We have a tradition that every year we get an ornament that reflects something that we've done that year. It's pretty fun and will be super cute when we're old and have 50 years of ornaments.
