The night before last we were putting up the Christmas decorations. When we came across the box containing the carvings that were sent to Clayton, we had to sit down and talk about each and every ornament.
I know that they were intended to be placed on a tree, but my wife and I were worried that they would become "lost" in the tree and they are too special for that. So we hung them on a wooden valance that is next to the tree and over the sliding door. This way they can be viewed in all there glory and detail. I really hope this doesn't offend anyone, we just felt that this was the best way to "showcase" them.
I know that these gifts will always be apart of our Christmas and we will always think of everyone's compassion.
Again,
