Trees and More Trees

Remember way back when I said I had 3 Christmas trees in my house? Well, Justine requested to see all 3. Guess that means you will all be seeing all 3 with a spotlight on a few of my favorite ornaments....

The real tree...

The fake tree I got for $1.90 at Target one year (after Christmas).

And the 3rd little tree..(Like my use of a tablecloth? I do not like that wooden thing under the cloth).


First , we have the sentimental ornaments. This is my cousin's handprint when she was 4. She is now 22.


One of the girls painted this last year..
This is from one of my favorite (am I allowed to say that) students when I was student teaching.
I have these from both girls from Kindergarten. I can't believe their hands were that small!

Then there are the novelty ornaments like Mickey Mouse heads everywhere!


Mmmmm, I could eat these guys up!


And if you live by the water, you of course, are going to have shell ornaments.


And if you have a VERY talented friend, you have some of her ornaments too!
A snow (sand) man....

And this jelly fish is new this year..

I am going to wrap it up for today (and get back to wrapping).

Did you say $1.90? Wow.

Love that snowman/handprint ornament! Kids grow quickly, don't they?

Pretty!! That handprint ornament is adorable. If my kids were still little AND if we celebrated Christmas, I'd totally be doing that. :)

My favorite is the octopus. Now that is an ornament one would not often see here in Wisconsin! But then again, you probably don't have any cheese chunk ornaments, do you? (I'm just being silly; I do NOT have any cheese ornaments, haha!!)
