Tradition #2

The Ornaments...

Every year each of one our kids gets a new ornament to put on the Christmas tree. Tiare collects angels, Tai collects snowmen, Malia collects Santa Claus' and Kiana is going to collect teddy bears. We have 13 angels, 9 snowmen, 6 santas and 1 teddy bear...plus I always buy a new ornament for myself! :) When the kids leave the house and are ready to decorate their own tree, they will get to take their ornaments with them as well as memories from their childhood! So...here are the new ornaments from this year!!
Tiare with her new "hula angel" ornament that we got on vacation in Hawaii in January

Tai with his basketball snowman...of course!!

Malia with her Surfin' Santa, again, from Hawaii!

And finally, Kiana with her first teddy bear ornament!!
