    Oh my goodness! We have a dozen little red VW ornaments on our tree. It was Randy’s first car and we had it up until just a few years ago. Love this one with your name on it!

    Well, I hope by 1979 they had fixed all of the problems I had with my 1973 bug. Uggg. It still rests on top of my "most hated car I've ever owned" list. And that's a tough list to top, believe me. :-) I much prefer your little ornament to the actual cars. It's cute, and I bet it doesn't stall out on the freeway and nearly kill you. I hope you guys are having a merry Christmas.

    oh Linda, I love that your mother made this for you...again, just how big is your tree? haha.
    you have the BEST ornaments ever and the most generous heart! Christmas Day is almost at a close, but the New Year beckons. so glad to have been one, inspired by you, this past year...

    love those kinds of ornaments--happy holidays linda

    Oh! this is darling!!! JUST my kind of ornament. I love your Mom too! She just knew this would end up being one of those keep-it-forever ornaments full of fun memories. (I HOPE fun memories. Reading Sonora Guy's description of his bug was a bit scary, but a friend of mine who had one loved zipping around in it. She had a way of popping the clutch when she started up that lifted our hair straight up, ha). Great shot of your little bug zipping through another holiday! Merry Monday after Christmas ♥
