Well, it's christmas time again. As we did last year, we plan on going to the cemetary to place a tree on Tristin's grave. Last year was a hard Christmas. I spent all holiday season trying to find an ornament for Tristin that didn't say baby's first Christmas. I eventually decided to go to Things Remembered and had a blue baby bootie engraved. This year we have a few ornaments for him. A friend found an ornament last year that said Rockstar. We also have an ornament in the shape of a T. In addition to Tristin's ornaments we have a G for Griffin and an L for Lorelei.
We plan to donate a toy for Toys for Tots again this year in memory of Tristin. We will also donate a toy to Children's Mercy in memory of him.
Griffin had a great time decorating the tree this year. We've also made our first batch of Gingerbread cookies.
I'm so glad that Griffin got to decorate the tree. I let Alex & Livy decorate the tree as well. Usually I like the ornaments spaced evenly but this year I just let the ornaments get placed as the kids saw fit. I just love Christmas time! This is a wonderful time of year to honor sweet Tristin. He will always be a part of your lives.
