Luke has taken a particular interest in the tree this year - and he decided that hanging 2 dozen candy canes on it would be a FANTASTIC idea :)
Aside from the candy canes, here are some of my new favorite ornaments this year. I found a hot dog and hamburger ornament and thought they were perfect for this year considering the boy's Halloween costumes :)

We've given Luke an ornament every year and this year Mason got to join in on the tradition...

I saw this idea on Pinterest and it seemed really simple and cute. I just painted the boys hands and had them "grab" the glass ornaments. Then I just wrote their names and the year on them hung them on the tree with ribbon. Luke's ornament:

Dave and I also exchange ornaments every year (and we have since 1999) and a lot of the time his are "drummer" oriented. I like this year's Italian drummer man :)
