WTF? Did I kill this thread? :redface:

We can't compete with that.

Pops-in-law is supposed to bring some family heirloom glass balls over, but I suspect he won't make it by western Christmas. If they show we'll post.

Hey, he said your favorite not can you top this. Probably most people's favorite isn't their most expensive, newest or shinyest. :headshake

I have the entire set of Hallmark Star Trek Ornaments. Just the ships, not the people ones they started bringing out to make us buy more and more.

Oh, and I got this year's Darth Vader.

Some day I will have a large enough tree to hold the number of strands of lights necessary to display them (you can only plug in two animated ornaments per strand).

Wolf - my Dad has the whole ship set too. My mom bought him one of those color changing artificial trees for them, and she sets it up in the kitchen. I honestly can't remember if she plugs any of the ornaments in.... I will check tomorrow.
It looks totally out of place in their very traditional house, but all the kids love it. (plus it beats her dorky teddy bear/ candy themed tree she used to put up)

ps - dang, I want a vader ornament. Was it Hallmark?

Yep. Says "Luke, I am your Father" and everything.

I would have also picked up the Locutus of Borg ornament, but they sold out. :borg:

Cripes. It's sold out! We don't have a Hallmark store here, so I guess I'm off to eBay....

LJ has the whole set of ships too, but they didn't make the cut this year. Actually, we missed a whole bin of ornaments when decorating, but the tree is smaller this year so its ok...
Here's a few favorites

My favorites are the ones my kids made - but considering I just took the tree down, I don't have any pictures... :rolleyes:

Jinx - is that a yellow pepper? very nice...

Yes, thanks, I like them much better than the green ones.
