My family Christmas tree isn't going to win any beauty contest. Admittedly, it's a hodge podge. And we love it!
I have ornaments, both hand-made and store bought, adorning the tree. Some of them my kids made. Some, I made as a kid.
Every ornament has a story. Here's the story on some of the ornaments in the collection that are about schools and teams our family supports.

My daughter has one for her alma mater too. It hasn't gotten broken, yet. |

There are more than a few Steelers' ornaments on the tree, including this officially-sanctioned candy cane. |
