One of my favorite Christmas traditions is putting up the tree (and I'll admit. mine was up before Thanksgiving).

In my family, we had the tradition of collecting a new ornament each year as we were growing up. Then when we get married or move out, we have some ornaments to hang on our own tree. The ornament selected usually corresponded to a major event that happened that year. For example:
This was an ornament we got last year (2008) because we spent Christmas in DisneyWorld.

We bought this ornament in Venice (2007) to represent the year we visited Italy.

This is Wade's new ornament for the year. He LOVES phones and is such a chatterbox when he gets his hands on one. We thought it was fitting.

I love this idea and I have seen it on a few blogs. I can't believe the ornaments you can find out there. In our family we exchange handmade ornaments with each other - so we make one for everyone and exchange. It has been fun so far - it is a new tradition
We have that same tradition! Except we started it when we got married. But each year we get an ornament to correspond to that year too. It's fun.
