We collect ornaments for special mile markers and also when we go traveling. Rather than having souvenirs scattered about the house all year we remember it all as we decorate the tree each year. I fear though that I AM one of those moms who fixes things when the child goes to bed. :p With just one kid in the house it's a bit easier. I put the ornaments on the top part of the tree and she does the ones within her reach. Anyway, sounds like you are a great mom who grows with her family and your kids are fortunate little things! - Monica K.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2346825649272632474.post-14760111313384640832011-12-12T07:29:15.328-05:002011-12-12T07:29:15.328-05:00The 100% adult tree is overrated, Wren, I love my ...The 100% adult tree is overrated, Wren, I love my 100% family heirloom tree... it is a hodgepodge of ornaments to include my baby's first Christmas,and ornaments that I hand made when times were tough... there is an ornament from my great grand mother and one to commememorate each year of my children's life... I could not do the "adult" tree and throw out family history. <br />-MeredithAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2346825649272632474.post-18867189234711071492011-12-07T19:05:23.633-05:002011-12-07T19:05:23.633-05:00I also let the boys decorate our tree.

Last year I found a DVD, a book and a few other toys stuck in with the ornaments! Like you, I fiqure that some day I'll have the "perfect" looking tree, but for now I'll let the kids enjoy their tree!Larenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14287695890615873616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2346825649272632474.post-73924496698309277582011-12-06T23:48:31.945-05:002011-12-06T23:48:31.945-05:00Hehehe. I let the boys put several of the ornament...Hehehe. I let the boys put several of the ornaments on this year. I left the room and came back to them all gathered on two branches... I admit, after they went to bed I 'fixed' them. However, I sense that there is still some 'redecorating' going on from time to time. You and Anson gave us a beautiful handblown glass ornament the first year we were married. I think Smudge knocked it off and broke it the 2nd or 3rd year we put it up :( So sad.Shana Schrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05901923275114710776noreply@blogger.com
