THE CREATIVITY PROJECT // TRADITION
Photography Theme Blog Circle

This month’s Creatitvity Project theme is tradition. I love this time of year because it’s full of so many fun traditions in our family. We visit Rockeller Center at least once to see the big tree. We play Secret Santa (and someone always ruins the secret!). We sing Christmas carol karaoke on Christmas Eve.  I have my gift wrapping extravaganza.  We wear our red pajamas Christmas morning.  But my absolute favorite is my ornament collection. It’s become a little tradition of mine to commemorate our travels and important milestones with a new ornament for each. We’ve accumulated an eclectic mix and I love adding the new “inductees” to the tree every year.  It’s a visual reminder of just how incredibly blessed we are. Of course, we have some “regular” ornaments too, but my hope is to someday have a tree solely of ornaments that house the many adventures of our lives.

To continue to the circle, please visit Kris for her take on this month’s holiday theme!

Tiffany B. - I do the same thing and pick up a ornament for the tree when we visit a new place. It’s so fun to get them out every year and remember our trips.

Buckeroomama - I love eclectic. It makes for a very interesting tree, with lots of stories behind each ornament. Our tree started out just your usual Christmas tree with the usual ornaments, but over the years, ornaments have been added that have special meaning or were given by someone dear and close to us. It’s now a weird mix of ornaments on our tree, but I love it all the more for its unusual mix. :)

Have a wonderful Christmas with the family, Maddy!
