So we all know those guys over on the right, don't we? Of course we do! It's the cast of the classic Rankin-Bass claymation special of the Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer!

Below is another pic of Rudolf...but this time he's a light up Christmas decoration. Yay for electricity.


One week from to day is the big day. Christmas! I'm glad it's so close, we could use some holiday cheer around here. We had to put down one of the dogs yesterday. She was old and having some serious medical issues and it was clearly her time to go, but it's still sad...she was around here for 13 or 14 years.
