Quite simply put, I love Hallmark Christmas Ornaments. My husband and I drool over their Star Wars and Star Trek ornaments every Christmas. Me being the tightwad that I am have never been able to stomach the price of the Hallmark Holiday Ornaments, however, somehow having children makes the price, not quite as important.
One of the frames we just love, are the large array of 
photo ornaments. We have two we purchased last year, and two I received from Hallmark PR this year. The ones we have last year, one has a family picture and the other has a photo of the kids together. So this year, we did the same thing with the photo frames we received for review.
The Happy Holidays photo frame with the photo of Zoe and Miles playing on the couch plays the song, “Happy Holidays”. It was fun putting it on the tree because Miles man pushed the button about 10 times. Christmas makes me so happy! I adore everything about Christmas, the music, the food, the family time. I LOVE IT.
This year when we were searching for the special ornaments for the kids (we get ornaments for the kids every year, it’s a tradition, it’s been a tradition for my husband and I since we were both kids and we wanted to do it for our own children) we waited a tad too long for one of them.
The kids are very much in Love with everything Toy Story. It doesn’t matter which story, 1, 2, or 3 Miles loves them all. Zoe, prefers the episodes with Jessie of course, which is why we 
purchased the Jessie ornament for her. Which leads me to what we waited too long for. We wanted to get Miles the High-Flyin’ Friends. Apparently Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments are harder to find especially the Toy Story ornaments. We called every Hallmark Store in the area, and my husband decided to pick another ornament for Miles man. He picked out the Play Family Fun Jet. The Family Fun Jet was still a great big hit. Miles Loves it. He loves airplanes, he loves 
taking me on blogging trips because he knows that means he will get to see another airplane.
So this is our Christmas tree, it’s filled with lots of love, beautiful lights, and plenty of meaningful ornaments.
We received A Hallmark Sample Kit of assorted Hallmark items, including the two photo frames you see in the first pictures. I was in attendance at a party sponsored by Hallmark at Blogher 2010 and connected with their PR firm there. None of this affects the fact that I have and always will love Hallmark. They have excellent products all year round, Precious Moments were always a big tradition growing up, but now, it’s mainly a Christmas store, and of course, I can always find the perfect card in there too. Thank you Hallmark for the samples. Miles and Zoe also love the Recordable Story book Twas the Night Before Christmas.
Oh my gosh! I just recently discovered these ornaments and I’m completely in love!! There are just so many that I want! I really love the yearly Snowman series. So cute!!

I purchased each of my daughters first Hallmark ornament s for them for their first Christmas. Every year I take them to the Hallmark Store to let them each select an ornament. They usually choose an ornament that has some meaning in their lives at that time. But we don’t hang them on the tree….they put them away so when they have their first Christmas tree it will be filled with memories. My oldest daughter is 19 and has 20 Hallmark ornaments in her collection.
Your tree looks beautiful!
Everything Hallmark makes is quality!!
I love them too!!! 🙂 We always get the numbered ornaments for each year for each kid. 🙂
Beautiful tree! I’m the same way, every ornament on my tree has a story behind it.
Oh how I love those Hallmark ornaments!! The new selection each year makes it so hard to choose just one!!
We love finding the Hallmart Ornaments on clearance after the holidays, we have several Rubbermaid bins full from doing this.
I love the Hallmart Ornaments, they are well made and the kids love them!
I’ve been collecting Hallmark ornaments since I was a kid, and I still can’t get enough of them. Recently, I discovered a website that I must share with all of you where you can easily buy any Hallmark ornament that you might have missed. It’s called The Ornament Factory (http://www.theornamentfactory.com). They seem to have the lowest prices I could find online for Hallmark ornaments. They even have some ornaments I never saw in the store, and some REALLY old ornaments as well. I thought my Hallmark ornament collection would forever have some holes in it … until I found them. I’ve placed quite a few orders with them so far, and everyone has been perfect. I can’t wait until I get my next paycheck so that I can buy a few of the Frosty Feiends that I’m missing!
