When it comes to decorating our Christmas tree we do a hodge-podge of ornaments collected from past Christmases. There is no theme for our tree except perhaps "Christmas Remembered." That's not to say that I don't think themed trees are truly awesome and wonderful. But when it comes to our tree, it is always a delight to pull out the ornaments that we have collected and to remember the years, places and people that surround each one. One of the things I began when the girls were each born, was to make pewter Snapfish ornaments of some of the photos of the girls with Santa or on our Christmas card, or original artwork done by the girls. The ornaments always turn out very nice and it is fun to look back on them each year. They are also very easy to make! Here are a few that we have made to add to our collection of ornaments in 2011. Emma-Caroline drew these pictures and then copied them so that Sophie could color a set too!
