This is from last year. The only significance...this tree is made up of ornaments gathered through the years. The paw print near the top from our "dutchess". I made these the first year Jerry and I were married... He was in college, we were dirt poor and dutchess was a trooper. That was each families "big gift" lol! That was in 1975. We also had one for us which ended up molding and falling apart many years ago but my one cousin still had this and our best present ever was when he gave it back to use a few years ago. The wood cross was given to us from a special godchild as she was going through a "religious conversion. Most the others are from trips.
Also, my godmother bought us an ornament every Christmas from the year we were married (the Hallmark type with the year) It makes putting the tree up each year very special and sentimental.
Very pretty, very special, and poignant.
