simplify

as i go through my life day to day, i have been mentally taking notes about how i want to change...how i want to get back to what is really important in life. my friend debbie over at Three Weddings recently wrote a very interesting post that really hit home. she makes a good point about cell phone use in our lives today. i'd like to give you an opportunity to read it...maybe it will spark something in your mind that will put you on the path to simplification.

thanks deb! you're so smart.

welcome to what's on my tree wednesday. you can click on the button to learn more about WOMTW or visit katie's blog and check out her family.

for this week's selection, i have again chosen a group of ornaments. when we were kids, we would go to my maternal grandpa's house on Christmas in the evening. my grandma made us ornaments every year. they're tattered and torn and some of them are completely pathetic, but they serve as great reminders of our childhood Christmas traditions.
