Ho ho ho! Christmas tree Santa is here to tell you that every year we go out and buy a tree for Christmas. Every. Single. Year. Well, why buy a tree for Christmas when you can be the Christmas tree? Aha! Yes, I have solved all of our problems with a simple solution. Now, shh, be very quiet and don’t bother me. I need to remain like this until after the 25th. 👀

I call this piece “Winter In Kansas,” where it can be 29 degrees, then 74 degrees, then 29 degrees again within the same week. We’ll have a foot of snow in a month, probably. Here in Anthology, Ballad poses in a thick snowflake sweater, a cozy holiday cap, a snowflake satchel, and a pair of shorts. She’s in her workshop creating all kinds of weird and wonderful gifts for her animal friends. (Also, in honor of me having to justify my own shorts to my incredulous library coworkers every time it gets unseasonably warm again. I don’t dress for the month, you guys, I dress for the temperature!)

Every Who down in Whoville loved Christmas a lot
But the Grinch and his sister up north, they did not
Staring down from their cave with a large angry frown
She states, "I must stop Christmas from coming to town!"

Apparently, the Grinch's sister is just as hairy and scary as he is!
 
Happy Holidays! 🎄

Just out for a nighttime stroll.

Hi, while nighttime strolls are always enjoyable (even in winter!), photos must be taken during the day or in a well-lit room. If you could either edit your post with a new photo or resubmit it in a new post, I’ll be able to accept your entry.

Sorry for not including daytime photo. I have edited my previous post with a photo taken during the day. Thanks! :)
