Our son in Ireland wanted some suggestions for Christmas. I mentioned a catalogue that had a range of personalised gifts. When we returned from Melbourne, there was a small parcel at the front door. It’s the Christmas tree ornament that you can see in the photo.
It’s very cute with the two koalas dressed in their Christmas hats. On the other side of the disc is ‘Christmas 2022’. Damian and Lorraine are the names of our son and his wife. Perhaps I shouldn’t have opened the parcel but I couldn’t tell who it was from by the packaging. And at least now I can display it over Christmas.

It's all there - we just have to use it and you helped your son with it.
It has a personal touch indeed

When I was about ten (and in those years you really only got one 'real' present), I found a book in the bottom of Mumm's wardrobe and read it there and then. Of course, come Christmas Day, I had to pretend to be surprised. I never EVER felt the need to open prezzies early after that.

@JudyEv Ha, They could just be the names of the koalas.

Nothing like a new ornament for the tree. It's fun to collect them over the years as some have attached memories to them depending on where you were when you bought them. That's a beauty!
