Ornaments

 

Every year each of us kids gets a new ornament to put on the tree.

This year Mom thought it would be fun if we took a field trip

to Ponca City to let the kids pick out their

 own ornaments at Hobby Lobby.

 

 

The kids were so excited. 

 

 

 That's Jonah's silly face. He is so cute!

 

 

Before we went into the store, Mom

 gave them four rules:

 

Don't run.

Be quiet.

Stick with a partner.

The ornaments are fragile so

 don't pick them up.

 

They still managed to break two.

 

 

 

We got Glynne a Cinderella carriage. When she was little she was obsessed

 with Cinderella. She turned eighteen this year so this will be her last ornament.

 When I mentioned that to Mom, she almost started to cry.

 

 

Ally got a little coffee maker.

 

 

Mine is a cowboy boot that says-

"Country Music Makes My Heart Sing."

 

 

Landon's says -

"I'd Rather be Hunting."

 

 

Kate's is a remote. She loves the show Full House and

 has probably watched every episode at least three times.

 So when Ally found this for Kate, we

all thought it was perfect.

 

 

Isaac is the fisherman of the family.

 So his fishing ornament fit him perfectly.

 

Jack got a football snow globe.



 

Mom handed Jonah the first ornament she saw that wouldn't break

 so he would be entertained while everyone else picked theirs

 out, which happened to be an airplane. He was sooo happy

 the whole time, I think everyone was thankful for that.

 

On the way home, we stopped at a gas station and we all got hot chocolate.

It was the perfect way to end a great day!

 

 

And let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time

we shall reap if we do not grow weary.
