Each year Mr Saunders calls for primary-school children across the electorate to help design his Christmas card, and this year 12-year-old Aaron Devenish has brought the title back to Mudgee Public School.
Aaron's design features a ute packed to the brim with presents, zooming off on a holiday, which Mr Saunders said really captured the excitement we are feeling as Christmas approaches.

Hot on Aaron's heels was 10-year-old Zeon Berger from St Mary's Primary School in Dubbo, and nine-year-old Emily Lucan from Orana Heights Public School.
"This year saw a record number of entries with the theme 'Let Loose from Lockdown' - and the kids certainly let loose their creativity," Mr Saunders said.
"The last couple of years have been really challenging for everyone - especially our kids - so this Christmas it's time to party."
Aaron's Christmas card design will start arriving in mailboxes across the Dubbo electorate this week.
