Overdressed snowmen

In a world of terrorist threats, crashing economies, joblessness, hunger, AIDS ... why aren't we asking the important questions?

Like, for example, why, if snowmen are made of snow, do they try to dress warmly? Wouldn't that, you know, make them melt? And therefore cease to exist more quickly? Shouldn't they be wearing as little clothing as possible? Maybe a swimsuit if they are concerned about decency?

Take, for instance, this guy, who is holding a sign praying for snow. Maybe he wouldn't need it to snow if he weren't wearing a damn snowsuit:

Then I got to looking around my house as we were decorating for Christmas and saw a recurring problem here. I believe it can mostly be attributed to snowmen having snow for brains. Here it is, guys: heat = too warm = bad for snow.

Oh, I'm sure I can find plenty more around this place, what with my husband's obsession with Christmas decorating, but I think you get the picture.

Christmas baby

Once again, I have not been blogging. Personal crafting is on the back burner right now, but here are a few Christmas pics of Brock, who is 5 months old.
He got his first tooth on Thanksgiving day and his second tooth today! He's sitting on his own just a bit. He had rolled over back to front a few times around a month ago, but he quickly stopped after realizing he was ending up in his least favorite position -- on his tummy.
