Anybody else out there collect ornaments on your travels? Maybe we should have an ornament party and share them!

My family does this as well. We started it my Sr. year of High School. It's so neat to be reminded of all the cool places we've seen over the years.
Our family has done this through the years too. It's been a while since we put up a tree, but when we did, I loved looking at our ornaments and remembering all the fun times. As our daughter was growing up, we also collected ornaments representing her activities, like ballet, gymnastics, Brownies, etc. Makes me nostalgic just thinking about it!
How fun! What great travels you have been on! We are putting our ornaments up tonight. Have been waiting for the boys to get home. Love it! There are so many fun memories in the travel ornaments. Have a simply wonderful day!
Love that idea! You are always full of good ideas!! I love that about you!
