The Boys Christmas Tree

We enjoyed decorating the boys Christmas tree last week. We set aside all the fun, kid like ornaments to use for their tree. And we talked about how next year there would be two little boys putting the ornaments on and how they would probably all be in one spot!!

We love the angel we found at Hobby Lobby last year (which was 50% off!):


This ornament we bought in Galena before we had even attended the America World seminar and knew anything about adopting from Ethiopia! We also didn't even notice the color of Mary, Joseph, and the angel. Can you say total God thing!!


Amy's favorite book is Where the Wild Things Are and this was a gift last year:

Amy had this Fisher Price toy when she was little. And the door on the ornament moos just like the toy:

Mike contributed this ornament to the tree, from the classic Grinch movie, his heart is a hologram that grows:

A gift from one of Amy's college friends, who doesn't love the Cat in the Hat:

Every child's favorite book and always the most popular checked out book at the library:

Can't wait until the boys are familiar with all these stories and toys!!
