My family Christmas tree isn't going to win any beauty contest. Admittedly, it's a hodge podge. And we love it!
I have ornaments, both hand-made and store bought, adorning the tree. Some of them my kids made. Some, I made as a kid.
Every ornament has a story. Here's the story on a few more family ornaments.

This one my mom bought me to remind me of a memory. She went with me to the fireworks on the Mall in D.C. in 1987 when I was a Congressional intern. This one has lights and sounds of fireworks, though the bulb plug-in doesn't fit the modern lights I have now. |

While we are on D.C.. . . |

My mom made this one. Brynley put it at the heart of the tree. Yes, it's a heart. |
|
This one was made by the glass artists at our local science and art museum, The Works. |

There's some sort of game associated with this pickle. I've forgotten the rules though. |
