the stories, they abound

I created this album a couple of years ago with the intention of adding to it. As we decorate the tree each year, the stories unfold. As our boys get older, they've taken to telling (and retelling) some of the stories themselves. This album features our Christmas tree ornaments and their stories (you'll find an excerpt below).

This is one of the many "Our First Christmas Together" ornaments we'd received as wedding gifts. We thought it a little cheesy at the time and decided to be cheesy ourselves... thus, the car crash.

We also have remembrance ornaments for pets no longer with us and special ornaments to mark other family memories/interests:

Stories and traditions can be helpful in strengthening a family's sense of identity (click HERE to learn more).
