That is one fine looking tree! That is one fine looking dog! That is one fine looking... Todd, have you gone native? Ashley looks as lovely as a spring morning. You've taken quiet a risk posting another photo of the dog on the blog; the last one drew a lot of Murdock mocking. Can't wait to see you both!

I'm pretty sure that you have cut down one of rare and possibly the last Belizean Thin Needle Pine. What kind of tree is that? The dog looks excited and maybe dead in the picture with Ashli. The boys thought she was kneeling on a dead dog. What happened to the beard? See you guys next Wednesday.

I like that you both have to have a hand on the dog at all times--probably so the fleas can have an access bridge.

What a delightfully bushy Christmas tree! And tastefully decorated too. What do people do there for Christmas?

I heard of a crazy new Christmas tradition you should start. You put a jar on your doorstep on Christmas eve, and Santa milks his reindeer for you. The sweet reindeer milk is apparently made by mixing a little vanilla and sugar to regular cow's milk. Isn't that bizarre? Magical reindeer teats! Quite a few people do it here. It gave me a little chuckle.

see you soon

What? we don't get to see the actual beard!? Oh well I guess I will still be pretty excited to see you guys, beard or not. 5 Days, just in case you forgot.

Alina,
Reindeer teats eh? Yeah that sounds like a tradition you would start, you do have such an alternative lifestyle.

mare said...

nice tree fags. ahah. i'm just having some fun with you. I love that you are both in the exact same position in both pics, touching the dog in the same way. it's a christmas miracle after all.

mare said...

yeah, after posting, just noticed that alina said almost the same thing about the dog. my bad alina.

Is that "Nacho Libre" in the top picture? That is a fine looking tree. We gave up on trees and our new run is an aluminum festivus pole. "Festivus for the rest of us" looking forward to seeing you guys at the annual "wear a towel on your head" night

Ash, The blue of your walls and decorations reminds me of the blue frosting on your gingerbread house last year...it was a foreshadowing.

I love the dog, is it ruben or ed? Todd, you should have held out for the $50 reward to shave your beard. It's supposed to snow this week, so you're coming home to a white Christmas!
See you soon!!
