Christmas Vomit In Your Christmas Face

Speaking of vomit, is everybody in Eastern Iowa sick?  Makes me stabbity with all the sickness talk that has taken over Facebook.  I feel for all of you but seriously my brain starts to wander with conspiracy theories about the flu vaccine and how it's Obama's attempt to take over the universe and we're all going to die a slow death in quarantine but then House M.D. will rush in and save me, I mean everybody, and that's super exhausting.

Facebook has become one gigantic Debbie Downer, Debbie does Facebook.  BUT in the instance that I post something about my kids being sick please throw me a gigantic pity party.  Kthx.  With vodka and tears for me.  Kthxtimestwo.

Anyreindeer, there was a point to this post other than sickness and Facebook and your mom.

Christmas vomit.

It's taken over the house.

See.   

Tree numero uno
Eeeeeeek!  Who is the creeper in the window!?  Just me?  Oh, carry on.

Blogger is being a real Scrooge right now and not putting the pictures where I tell it to and aligning the text however it feels.  Bahfuckenhumbug.

Let me take a drink of Christmas spirit and try to get on with it.

Alright.  Better.

 

Tree numero dos....

specifically bought for these Harley ornaments, they are special
Also, I had completely forgotten about the second tree until I unloaded the tree bag, Merry early Christmas to me.

The two trees started in opposite places.  Alexa and I both decided they would look better where they are now.  So, the four year old and I moved the obnoxiously large and heavy tree across the house by ourselves.  Thanks goodness for little helpers.

Some more Christmas cheer.


Stockings hung by the non-functioning fireplace with care

In the background right now the Wonder Pets are singing about a little puppy who has to pee pee and "This is seewious" good lord Nick Jr. lay off the crack.

And the piano.

Sing us a song you're the piano man

There are also eleventy seven snowmen everywhere but I won't bore you with them.  You're welcome.

And last but certainly not least, Jesus and his posse

Also, attempt number one for a Christmas card photo:

I learned two things from this: 1) I need a new camera 2) Avery's too young to bribe with chocolate yet, she hears 'chocolate' and is immediately pissed she doesn't have said chocolate in her face yet OH and 3) Alexa rocks, but I already knew that.

She got her damn chocolate:

It looks like Avery got ran over be a reindeer
Nope, just made to endure ten torturous minutes of picture taking

Ho Ho Ho,

Christmas Teisha
