It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas


This is how Santa rolls in our house.  Santa's Jayhawk hat.



The search for the perfect Christmas tree...and we found one.








Dad sawing off the trunk of the tree.  Maybe he will pass this tradition down to me someday.

A little Christmas magic was brought to our house this Christmas holiday, courtesy of Aunt Julie. He is a magical elf who flies to the North Pole every night reporting to Santa Reesing & I's good deeds and "not so nice" actions of the day.  He comes back every night and lands in a new spot.  Introducing to you the newest member of the family...Frog.


Anxious to check out the Christmas decorations and get started trimming the tree.

I love this adorable pose from Reesing the moment she saw all of the Christmas decorations. 
She had a sparkle in her eye that said she was in awe.


Mom, Reesing and I worked really good together when decorating the tree.  Mom fixed all the ornaments, put them in a plastic tub, handed them to Reesing and then she brought them to me to hang on the tree.





Reesing, of course, had some of her own special decorations to hang.



And yes, KU was playing that day, so all 3 of us were showing our KU spirit from head to toe.

And the best line of the day...At one point in the decoration process I turned to mom and said, "Hey Mom we really need some more hookers. I just don't think we're going to have a enough hookers to decorate this tree."  Mom:  "Hmmmm...you mean hangers?"  Me:  "Yes, those hookers.  We need a lot more!"
