Celebrating with friends who are family…
Blue Christmas!
This girl, though…
Silly Miss Pearl.
At the local butcher’s shop…
Hitch him to that sleigh, he’s ready to go!
Good job on the window painting…
Forget the elves, this is the only little helper Santa needs!
Nighttime light-peeping…
A friend did a spectacular display with lights and music. Unlike most other displays, all of this his 100% home-made.
Merry madness!
A frenetic mix of new and old.
Rudolph is back. He’s a mad, mutant and hasn’t forgotten about that whole “reindeer games” fiasco.
A Southern California December day…
Become ungovernable.
The only snowflake in sight.
These two know each other. The pelican is begging. The fisherman obliged.
Here he is, with a tad more dignity. This is a brown pelican with his breeding plumage.
Saddleback, looking good.
#1 winter sport with the locals.
At the local craft emporium…
The official greeter in a festive mood.
Best wreath of the season, right here.
Seasonal…
We don’t have a ton of Christmassy nature around here, but by gum, we’ve got trees with red berries on them!
Nothing says “holiday season”…
…like a trip to the dentist…
At the Christmas bazaar…
The hard part? Making sure I don’t buy something that I donated.
Stuff seen while walking…
“Let’s get this show on the road!
Mighty tempting. But, per the rules outlined last month, off limits.
Holiday welcoming committee.
Classic blow-mold alert!
Apparently I have chosen the form of the Destroyer…and it’s this guy.
This guy had a faux fur beard and some kind of velvet-ish covering for the suit. Wonder how that fared with all of the moisture and rain?
This fella looks excited for the big day!
