Ironic Christmas Ornaments (‘Mission Accomplished’ Edition)

My favorite ornament since I was child is a handmade santa, with a perfect face that was sent to my family from friends in Denmark just before the Nazis invaded in the 30′s. He’s lost his legs along the way, but it doesn’t matter, he always sits near the top of our tree.
