We put up one of our two trees yesterday! Yes, two trees. Our main large tree will go up later this week and yesterday we decorated our mini three-foot tree that sits in our kitchen.
This mini tree has become our ‘fun’ tree. It’s where we put our meaningful Christmas decorations that we pick up on trips, or that remind us of something, or that are just plain fun.
Each year, we typically add a new ‘fun’ ornament because one of us will get one as a gift. Last year, Santa left a Perry the Platypus ornament under the tree.
Part of the fun was opening up the container yesterday and everyone becoming very excited by the ornaments.
Some of our favourites include the Rudolph ornaments, the School House Rock ornament that sings Conjunction Junction and the lobster claw from PEI 9 years ago.
Do you have ornaments that mean something special to you? The ones kids make? Do you collect ornaments when you travel?
