Charlie Brown Trees
I was over at my mom's the other day and we started talking about how our tree looked growing up - the 'Charlie Brown' type, that we as kids so lovingly decorated with our collection of random ornaments that grew each year.
On Christmas Eve, we always received two gifts to open - a pair of pj's (matching of course!) and an ornament. Over the years we got all kinds of ornaments. My mom and I started looking through my ornament boxes and relived a few memories, and my mom mentioned one ornament in particular that was so fragile that she wasn't sure anybody had it left. And we got an idea! My new photography project is to capture all of these ornaments in photos, so even when they get broken, or lost, and don't make it on a tree anymore, we'll still have the memories of our family Christmas tradition. So, here's the first one!
This is from Christmas 2007. My siblings and I all got 'Precious Moments' themed ornaments. They were all different, if I remember right, but here is mine:

More to come! I promise, some of these are pretty good....;)
