It is so rewarding every year to pull out the boxes and deck out the tree in beautiful, meaningful ornaments - and not spend a cent (except for the tree itself and this year's ornaments).

One Two Three
I have mentioned it before . . . The first year we were married, our Christmas budget was $75. We went to the mall and the wife took $32.50 and I took the same. Our Christmas consisted of whatever we could fit in our stockings (funny how little has changed). The wife bought me an ornament for the tree and a tradition was born. 18 years later and we have 37 ornaments representing the passage of our years together. When you add Annie's ornaments (two a year for a total of 4 so far) we have 41.
It is so rewarding every year to pull out the boxes and deck out the tree in beautiful, meaningful ornaments - and not spend a cent (except for the tree itself and this year's ornaments).

Really enjoyed this post, your beautiful tree, the humility and the sentiment of the one following it as well.
