He hauled this rusty beat-up old thing out of the back room and promised me it would look gorgeous, and I crossed my fingers and ordered one.
My medals, trophies, plaques and cups are all at my parents' house being strewn about my my 8 yr. old niece and 2 yr. old nephew. One plaque is currently a Barbie table. Goodness knows where the others are. If it's shiny, they will come.

A couple of years ago, I had painted my daughter's room to mirror a garden complete with a very large tree. One day while she was at school I got the idea to start hanging her medals on the tree like apples; now it's become a tradition.
My trophy and medals are sittin on my desk right in front of me
I've also got a Pez dispenser (Darth Vader), a keychain flashlight and a wrapper from a Cadbury Egg (I know... weird, but it was still a prize... and I did rinse it off!!).
