Jesse Tree Ornament Exchange

Our Home School Group hosted a Jesse Tree Ornament Exchange. 25 Families each created 25 of the same ornament and we got together for a large Thanksgiving Party and swapped the ornaments. What creativity! The ornaments follow the season of advent, putting 1 ornament on each tree in December leading up to Christmas.

Here is a photobook I created through Shutterfly to read through:
