There are three trees in our home each year. The main tree is in the living room, there is a small tree in my office and this tree resides in the den. It is our favorite tree. The ornaments on this tree are photo ornaments of the grand kids at Christmas from age 1-18, so there are a total of 72 ornaments that we rotate annually. This is not just a decorated tree; it is a family history filled with precious memories of Christmas past and I captured virtually every one of the images. This is a tradition that I would encourage anyone to begin. Twenty years from now you will grateful for the memories.




What a fun idea! Mom has some meaningful ornaments on our tree. For her one tree is plenty. We love the special ornaments so much but yours with all your family photos are wonderful.

Every ornament triggers a memory with a grandchild. It is the best idea we ever had.

John Legend is such a super talent and his voice works perfectly for this song.
We’ve downsized from three trees to one this year and cut back some of the other decorating. It ebbs and flows every year depending on the energy.

John Legend is a gifted musician for sure and this song suits him very well. Yes, our energy determines our decorating, but once started we seemed to get a little more energized.

Love the videos, but the tradition of the decorations is most wonderful. What a wonderful idea. A treasure that will go through the generations. I hope you and your wife are on there too.

It was our best idea ever and a labor of love. I would encourage any young family to start with their children and continue all the way through their grandchildren.

I have some ornaments with great sentimental value for me, too, including a couple made by my son when he was young. I think your tree idea is wonderful! I especially enjoyed John Legend’s cover. He’s a great talent. Alana ramblinwitham

I would suggest getting a few Christmas photo frames and adding them to the decor.
