Make a FAMILY TREE for Christmas

For those of you who are interested in reminiscing about the past year and who like to do something a little different, consider this. Last year, Curt and I started making our own Christmas tree ornaments. Since last year was the first year, we took pictures from whenever…years ago through mid-November 2007 and made them into nice, little ornaments to hang on the tree. The plan is to take new pictures throughout the year and make new ornaments every year. We cut them into different shapes, glue them onto “fun foam,” hole punch them, and tie a ribbon. It would be something really fun to do as a family, letting the kids choose the pictures and glue the pictures to the foam shapes.

It is a really fun way to remember how blessed we were throughout the year. Let me know what you think and if you try it.
