Every year since Art and I started dating we bought a Hallmark ornament! The first year I got him one with a pic of us at my sorority ball that said "our first Christmas together 1998". 1999 we got a snowman that said "Hats off to the New Millenium" and it was dated. Last year we got an Eskimo carving a picture of a penguin in ice...also dated. This year we recieved a Hallmark ornament from friends that said "Our first Christmas together 2001" (since we got married in Oct) so we bought an ornament from Carleton Cards that had a Bride and Groom mouse on it and "Our First Christmas together 2001". I wanted one that had a B+G on it! All those ornaments are very special to me cause they represent each year I have been with and loved my honey! We're going to get a dated one each year....and continue it when we have kids!
