Pam came to the rescue and had another full ball of the Lion Brand Magic Stripes so I am back knitting this scarf again. (Notice, I am still wearing flip flops in November! It is 70+ today in Chandler.)
We decorated the tree yesterday. It is a wee bit bottom heavy which is amazingly proportional to the height of the oldest child.
Only 1 ornament casualty......a hand blown glass ornament from 1984. Somehow, it just hit the tile.....not a good combination with glass. Oh well, it is to be expected with the kids helping decorate!
My parents gave us each an ornament every year so that when we left home to our own home, we would have a tree full of memories. Every Christmas is a trip down memory lane as we trim the tree. I have ornaments from my paternal Grandma, my Godfather and parents.
We are continuing the tradition with our children. We got our family ornaments, everyone picked their own, while we were in San Diego earlier this month.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend!

The scarfs are cute. I like the yarn choices.
The ornament idea is so cute and thoughtful. It's a great way to create memories.

Beautiful tree Sarah! And that scarf looks fab.
The scarf is gorgeous - thanks for sharing! x
Your tree looks lovely! My family did the same thing with ornaments. It is such a fun tradition.
