New Ornaments
Every year we purchase and/or make ornaments for our Christmas tree. We have so many handmade ornaments and each one holds a special memory. We plan on giving the children their ornaments once they have homes of their own. This year we found some cute ones that fit each child perfectly. Hopefully, we find time to make some this year too (been thinking about punched tin).
This is Twirlgirl's.
It is a flute. She has been playing the flute for 2 years and loves it!
This is Little Dude's.
This is Little Dude's.
It is a guitar. He started taking lessons a few months ago and loves his guitar.
This is Tootie's.
It is a bottle of nailpolish. The girl is hooked on lip gloss, nail polish and anything else girly!
Sorry about the picture quality. I took these real quick with my camera phone.
