Birds Of A Feather...

Our bird tree...
I can even touch it
without breaking anything...
J'adore the birds~
and the peacock feathers...
Our tree makes me happy and so
does my Kitty BFF shirt...
so happy I think I might start to...
DANCE!
We have also started
a new tradition this year...
We have used some family ornaments
(vintage ornaments from mommy's great Aunt Katherine)
and we are writing on hang tags who we are grateful for...
We do this as a family every night after dinner.
I love this part. Every day I ask mommy and daddy
who they are grateful for and they ask me.
I 'write' who I am thankful for on one side of the tag,
and on the other side I stick an alphabet sticker that
is the first initial of the person I am grateful for that day.
So, we have a tree of feathers and gratitude!
WE love this so much we think we will
continue this tradition next year...
Maybe Maggs will be able to join us then!

p.s. Our bird tree ingredients:
faux birds, faux nests, peacock feathers,
vintage ornaments, hang tags with alphabet
stickers and name of person we are grateful for,
sparkly Merry Christmas sign as a tree topper,
and brown burlap for a tree skirt.

Ooh. It's so pretty. The tags are such a great idea. And I am dying over the BFF shirt.
