As kids, my mom got us each a new ornament for the Christmas tree every year. Plus, you have the years here and there where you make one at school to bring home as well. This means that I came into our marriage with a good 2 dozen or so ornaments. Jeb also had a few that came with him, not quite as many, but a few. Plus, my mom continued the tradition of new ornaments and added Jeb into that as well. So, we each have 15 more ornaments in our Christmas boxes.
Then came Abigail. She now has 11 of her own ornaments just from grandma. Plus a few from school here and there.
Add in Harrison. He has 8 grandma ornaments.
Leah has 6.
Hudson has 3.
Holden got his first one this year.
Woah, that's a lot of ornaments, right? Want to see how it looks when every single one is given the opportunity to be displayed on the tree?
Ah breathtaking, I know. The secret? If you put at least 4 or 5 on each branch, you can make it work.
Sometimes at night I can actually hear the tree groan.
