Last year while decorating the tree we discovered that we have quite a few China themed ornaments. So we decided that next year we would make a "China" Tree. Using mostly Red and Gold Ornaments and few special ones as well. It's only about 3 ft high but I think I might like it even better than our big one.
We have several of these little China boy ornaments. They were given to me about 20 years ago from Tammy when she went on a mission trip. (Who knew it was a foreshadowing of things to come)
The year of Ty's adoption was 2008 the year of the Beijing Olympics. We bought a pack of all the characters known as the friendlies.
2011- the year Johanna was born is also the year of the Rabbit.
Mia was given this China Barbie ornament.
We help support a wonderful family that lives and "works" in China. This Tibetan symbol was given to us a few years ago by them.
Last but not least is this wonderful Precious moments Angel. She was given to us by Kimberly Baggett. After they decided to switch their adoption from China to Ethiopia. She fits just perfectly atop our new tree. We think this tree may be a tradition.
