However, she wasn't interested in helping hang ornaments. So I did it during nap time by myself. It is always a fun trip down memory lane when looking at various ornaments. Thought I'd share some special ones with you:
This is an angel that I bought Doug before we started dating. He invited me (or I invited myself?) to help put up his tree shortly after we met. I brought this along as a gift for him.
My friend Leslie has an identical ornament to this. We bought them when we shared an apartment together. It was my first Christmas "on my own!"
This is one of three similar ornaments that my mom gave me the Christmas after Doug and I were married. Apparently she bought them for me back when I was in Junior High (is that right mom?) and made a comment to her that "I'd love to have a ornaments like that on my tree when I'm all grown up." She had saved them for years and I didn't even remember making the comment!
This is pretty self-explanatory. I love these picture frame ornaments!

I can certainly appreciate tree decorating time as a trip down memory lane. We love a garish multi-colored tree packed with memory-embedded ornaments. No beautiful theme tree for us. This is our second year with Christmas decorations in storage - next Christmas the memory trip will be a LOT of fun! Either that or I won't remember anything...
