My husband and I started a
tradition when we were engaged. Each year for Christmas we make the
other person an ornament. It can be made of any raw materials (that
don't perish), but has to fit on the tree and has to have sentimental
value for something that happened that year!
This year, give them an ornament they will treasure forever. Our
Heart shaped
Engraved Christmas Ornament is made of crystal and will become a
keepsake for years to come. Engrave it with your wedding date, a
birth date, or any date that is important to you.
One year I fashioned a little wooden house modeled after the home we
bought that year (our first!) The year we were engaged, Dave bought a
toy rocket kit and a bubble-gum machine ring. The Ring went around the
tube of the rocket. This was to remind me of our engagement. (A little
unique, but fitting for the unique ring I got -- it has a gemstone from
a falling star on each side of the diamond.)
I knew he was up to something
when he was doing all the planning. I thought something for my birthday.
He always just smiled and said "I'm building you a rocket ship to the
Moon." The ornament from him that year was named "Rocket Ship to the
Moon".
Each year it keeps us guessing and thinking.
