Our Christmas Tree

This year at the Katchur house, decorations are scarce. I don't really have a reason for that, but honestly I'm kind of enjoying it. We have the tree up and a few pictures and the stockings. This post is all about our tree. This was the first year that Anna had any interest in helping decorate the tree. She enjoyed helping hang the ornaments. And of course Daddy helped her to add the finishing touch of topping the tree with the star. She was so proud!
Next, I just thought I would share some of my favorite ornaments. I bought this one our first Christmas. I love snowmen and this one really caught my eye. I still love it. I love that it says JOY! It makes me want to bust out in song...Joy to the World...
My mother has always bought us ornaments for Christmas, and I mean always. I don't think she has ever missed a year. This ornament may be my favorite! She does a good job picking out for each person, but this one was the best for me. A flip flop!! That is an awesome Christmas tree ornament! I love that she thought of me when she saw it!!
And this one........is probably my favorite on the tree this year. This is the first handmade by Anna ornament. She made it last year at church, and I just adore it. I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.... :) but this one is beautiful to me!! I can't wait to see what she makes to add to the tree this year.
