First ornament on our tree!

Post by mindehankins »

We hung the first ornament on our tree tonight!

It came in the mail today, from a fellow forumite, in honor of my irrigating Miss Vie's beach!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
As soon as Christmas is over, it'll be my (as intended) keychain!

Looks much better on the tree than it would in the water if I was snorkeling

What really touched me was that I'm not IN the exchange group....this was just a random act of kindness! So I'm an extra grateful recipient :D

Thank you for the laugh, Minde! The shark looks like it's even the right color. :lol:
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

I got mine from Lovermont today! I love it! It has a nautical theme with a pretty sand dollar and anchor. It deserves a prime spot on the tree!

It was also so nicely wrapped and packaged. To the person who is getting my gift (today or tomorrow I hope) SORRY. I had it wrapped better but then dropped the box at the post office! So since it was breakable I had to take it home and check it and re-wrap. (It was fine, but I just couldn't stand worrying about it so I had to check).

Anyways, I will post a photo of my ornament this weekend!

I hope I'm not hijacking this thread...
I wanted to share my ornament too and I'm not sure if we'll start a new thread for everyone to post photos.
Here's my adorable ornament from Ksea. She must have known that I'm a freak for turtles! Very sweet ornament painted on a shell.

I can't hang it on my tree, because we don't have one yet (what with going to STJ on Monday :wink: Don't feel sorry for me!) This photo was taken of the ornament hanging on a bush outside. :lol:

Thank you Ksea! I love it!
