  • So many to choose from! We have an ornament addiction. Of the ones we got this year, either Cinderella's castle or the snow globe one we have. They play fun lights and music!

  • That's a hard one to answer! I guess my favorite is the ornament H and I bought for our first Christmas together. We try to buy one every year now that has some significance to what happened that year in our lives. We have yet to buy one for 2013, oops!

  • We received a Lenox ornament as a wedding gift, it's a little bride and groom with our names and wedding date.  That, or the one we got in Key West on our honeymoon.

  • I love the ornaments we get each year. We got our first Christmas together, first house, just married and this year I got a photo ornament with the picture below.

    No funny ones yet.

  • We suck and just have "pretty" ornaments and none that have any sentimental value.  I wanted to get one last year for our first Christmas as a married couple, but we never did it.  I also want to get one for our first house, which we should have gotten 2 years ago.  We'll see if we get around to doing it this year.

  • I don't have any funny ones on my tree. My favorite  one is one that my aunt made (she passed when I was 15). It always hung on my mom's tree growing up and she gave it to me a few years ago.

    My mom's tree has a lot of funny ones.  When we were kids we but anything with a string on the tree so a lot of our ornaments aren't even Christmas related.  Anything that came out of a cereal box with a string went on the tree.  We have a teddy bear, the Little Mermaid, and M&M, etc. My mom also has all our hand-made stuff too.  After 20+ years, they're pretty beat up and gross, but we still put them up (we put them in the back, ha!).

  • This year for H's birthday (Nov. 14) I got him a "Our First Christmas" ornament - We couldn't find one last year so I had one made with our names and wedding date on it.  That's another one of my favorites.

  • Oh, so many favorites:
    - I have a few that were my great-grandmother's, those are very precious to me
    - H's aunt made us one that has our wedding program (cut up into strips) and a few other things from our wedding inside a clear ball ornament
    - 2 Murano glass ornaments that we bought in Venice this year
    - Our engagement ornament with the date H proposed on it

    I could go on and on....

    As for funniest, those are probably H's Muppet ornaments. Most of them talk/have music and are pretty funny

  • I love the ones we get each year, first christmas together (well living together), new house, just married, and this year I got a photo ornament to put the picture in my siggy in. 

    No funny ones, I like my tree to match with our yearly ornaments.

  • I love all of our ornaments. I think my favorite is one that my mom made. It's just a styrofoam ball that was decorated with beads and stick pins but I think it is the most sentimental.

    The funniest one that we have is the sushi roll. We also have a taco. Lol

  • I used to have lots of cool ornaments as a kid. This year, we just have plain red and green balls with glitter. DH did get me a metal hello kitty nutcracker ornament which is awesome.

  • My favorite ornaments are the two engagement ornaments that we have.  For Christmas the year we got engaged, both of our mothers gave us ornaments with the date on them.  They make me happy every time I see them :)

    The funniest is probably the 2 Elvis ornaments that I have.
  • It's so hard to pick one. We love ornaments and collect them. We get a new one every time we go on a vacation and get new ones every year around now. My favorites include the peacock feather ornaments we made as our wedding favors, our photo one my MIL made us with a wedding photo and our new one for this year that's 2 snow people, one male and pregnant female that's says our names and "we're expecting" .
  • My favorites would have to be our wedding ornaments. Mom made us one with a wedding photo on one side, our "logo" on the other. She also had one of those done that is a wedding couple riding in a car and it has the "Just Married" and the wedding date. 
    We don't really have funny ones yet (although I want some!), but we do have glittery plastic peacock feather to represent my mom. It's really ugly and doesn't match anything. haha. I'm very into unique Christmas ornaments. I grew up with one tree (I know a lot of people, my in-laws included, put up multiple trees), and we just did sentimental ornaments. We never had the cookie cutter balls. I want to work up to that eventually, but we don't have enough, so we have blue and silver ornaments as well!
