A Unique Christmas Gift Idea

The White House Historical Association Annual Christmas Ornament

My Dad actually is the inspiration for this unique Christmas gift idea. He is a retired Air Force Colonel and through some of his retired military friends, he discovered that the White House Historical Association issues an annual limited edition Christmas ornament. Each year the theme is different and revolves around a specific piece of White House history. Inside each box with the ornament is the story of the historical event depicted on the ornament. Not only are these some of the most beautiful ornaments made, but they also provide a small but insightful peek into our country’s history. This past year’s ornament commemorated the first children in White House at Christmas during President Theodore Roosevelt's tenure. My mind sprang into action when I saw it and knew it would be a perfect engagement party gift!I not only bought one for the newly engaged couple but for her mother also. It is a nice reminder each Christmas of the year of her daughter’s engagement.

Here is this year's White House Ornament





Over the years, my parents have now gifted these to each of our grown children who are building their own collection. Plus they are so reasonably priced that they make wonderful and unique Christmas gifts for teachers (especially history teachers!), Scout leaders, friends and as hostess gifts for your holiday party rounds. You can order the White House Historical Ornament right from your computer!

These ornaments are truly just one of the most unique Christmas gift ideas I have found and I owe this idea all to my DAD!

Here is a past year's ornament. It is commemorating the very first Christmas tree put up in the White House by President Benjamin Harrison.
So think about this unique Christmas gift for someone on your list.. maybe, like my Dad, you will start an annual Christmas tradition for someone special!
