See, I even have one in the bedroom. I'm going to have serious withdrawals when Christmas is over. This is a new tradition for me that started because the kids knocked it over three times when it was in the hall. Lots of traditions get started that way around here. 
The ornament sweet cousin Tanner made for us last year. Why oh why must they keep growing! I'm going to have to buy something NASA makes to keep this thing from ever breaking. It would just kill me! Erica you may not realize but these things are precious to me, however silly that may be. I'm a sentimental sap!
In my family ornaments are more then just ornaments. They have always told a story of the past year. Each one is picked with love and care ( except the snow goose but Dad will have to live with that one!) When Marc and I got married we carried on the tradition. My absolute favorite one he has gotten me is by far the Santa Clause in a bumber car. We had only been married a year or two and he told me he would get so frustrated with me sometimes he just wanted to go duke it out in some bumber cars. Every year I look at that car and laugh and cry at how far we have come. We still want to get in those bumber cars sometimes but were laughing the whole way.
I am loving my Christmas Home so much! I have the entire house decorated. I'm not kidding each room has a little Christmas. Normally I get tired of the cluttered feeling about this time but not this year. Something is different this year. I just want to cherish it all.
