This year Jason was going to be out of town when we officially do our "Ornament FHE" so we did it yesterday. There is a funny story behind the ornaments for this year. We went to a few different stores because we haven't found the best store for ornaments. I kept telling Jason that we needed this one Christmas store in Omaha that just sells ornaments and he said, "We aren't in Omaha so that is not going to help us."
Anyway, without further ado, we were able to pick out a few. I could tell Jason didn't want to go to another store so he said that he was picking one out at the store we were in. I was surprised because most of them were very girly. I told him that each ornament every year has to do something with that past year. I wanted a Mardi Gras mask because we went to New Orleans and I was a Mardi Gras gal for Halloween. But I came up with this strand with Mardi Gras colors. Wyatt's ornament is an airplane, of course, due to his undying love for anything that flies in the skies. And Jason's is this polar bear. I asked him the story behind this one and he replied, "I don't know why but I'm really missing Canada this year."
Okay, I'm still laughing about it because he made that up because he didn't want to go to another store.
(For those who don't know Jason lived in Canada for two years serving a mission for our Church.)

What a great tradition, I think I might need to "steal" it. Love Jason and his hilarious comment about missing Canada.
