Pass by it everyday I drive to the train station. Love seeing it and always look forward to the new holiday season and what Treesa will be wearing. Just noticed the Elf costume today. I think it's great.

You're a real estate attorney and you did that to your neighbors??? If town officials lived on your block, I wonder if they would put up with that eyesore. Maybe you should get a barbie doll instead.

All of you who are complaining about what an "eyesore" it is...you don't live there, so why do you care? I think it's funny, although I would not choose this for my own lawn.:o)

RIGHT ON!! If the "complainers" only knew how many people have come up to me, and said how it made them feel happy, or about the many kids who love it and come onto the driveway to take pictures, or the high school kids who go by on the bus and brag that they know the guy who did it, well, maybe you'd take the negativism and shove it where it belongs and look at a bright thing for what its worth! I frankly don't care if it prevents me from selling the house, because whoever buys it is going to have to agree to let me come on to the property at every holiday to dress her up, IF they want to buy the house. A "decorating easement" I might call it. Bah humbug to all you nay sayers.

Dad, I love your tree and I loved helping you decorate it this year....(Yes everyone, I appreciate the dad's tree work and was 110% involved in the painting-with or without the shopping haha). The elf idea was all mine.
To the comment about an eyesore, thankfully, you aren't our neighbors.:) Treesa is FABULOUS
I love you too, honey!

Daily Horoscope for January 4

Leo

Even though you usually pride yourself on being the strong silent type, love has a way of unlocking your tongue. The words coming out of your mouth may be familiar, but your sense of timing makes all the difference right now. Keep in mind that you never know how a risky gesture will work out, although you can always hope for the best. When in doubt, take the more cautious path.
