We have an ornament exchange every year here in Medford at the Bennions. Everyone gets together with friends and ladies from different wards and each one brings a wrapped ornament. We all draw numbers to see who goes first. The rules to the ornament exchange is to try to get the ornament that you love. You can pick a wrapped ornament or steal one from someone else but in order to keep your ornament it has to be in your possession three times. Yesterday was my sixth time going. I got number 36 so I was the second to the last one to pick. I had my eye on this awesome ornament and when it was finally my turn, I got it and was so very happy until my friend who I invited to come with me stole it and broke my heart. I'm just kidding, I still love you Christy! I have been pretty good over the past five years at getting the ornament that I want, but this year I didn't do so good. I will have to work on my ornament stealing strategies. The pictures are of ornaments I got over the past six years. The ornament pictures go in order from the first year I went until now. I look forward to these ornament exchange parties, they are always so much fun!!

oh, that's cool... I was wondering what happened to you.... busy time of year I guess!!! I think they are all great ornaments.
Maybe next year you will get the one you scheme for. I like the tin soldier one. Sounds like a fun kind of exchange to start and look forward to each year.
Love and miss you!
I love the Santa with the glass belly. he is my favorite.
