Family Traditions

I don’t know what it is about the holidays but I get all giddy about traditions. My family has many traditions but one specifically that I love. It’s a tradition passed down from my in-laws. When my husband was born they bought him an ornament and then every year after that he would get an ornament to represent something from the year. We have little booties, a car, a briefcase, a Santa lifting weights and many more random things on our tree. When my son was born on December 1st , 14 years ago I knew we would start this tradition. Every year on Christmas Eve my kids get an ornament representing something special about their year and a pair of Christmas jammies. I have many, many pictures of my little loves with their ornaments and their Christmas jammies in front of my tree. We have world globes, Mickey and Minnie, musical instruments, a little potty, shoes, black belts and many more. I love my tree of randomness and it’s so fun to get them out each year and remember why we bought it.

What are some of your favorite family traditions?
