Away in the manger

The Christmas decorations are up. Well not at my house but at others. I do not decorate outside for the simple fact that it is colder than a witches tit in a brass bra (I have heard that is really damn cold). If that makes me the Grinch so freakin' be it. But I do drive the darlings around to look at other peoples crap...ahh..I mean decorations. Tonight on the way home from a school function we passed a house with a GIANT plastic manger in their front yard.

Peyton: HOLY SHIT! IT'S BABY JESUS! STOP THE CAR MOM SO WE CAN GET OUT AND SEE HIM!!!!

Cade: AWWWW. Peyton said a bad word! If baby Jesus heard you he'll tell God to tell Santa not to bring you any presents! Can we go look at baby Jesus mom????

No. We did not stop. Yes. The language was dealt with. No. I have no clue where he could have heard such a thing. No. I don't think they realized that wasn't the real baby Jesus...seeing as Cade wanted to take him another blanket.

  4. Too freakin' cute! And the witches tit in a brass bra - is that a MI saying? My mom says something very similar.

    We take the kids up to the northern part of town around the holidays - in the hood they have contests to see who can assemble the most plastic baby Jesus', Snoopy's dressed as Santa Claus, and inflatable Grinches. Warms my heart every year.

  5. Wow, it sounds really, really cold there. I am the same way though, no way I am standing outside rigging up a bunch of lights while snot dribbles down my nose and I get ticked off by all the tangles. Totally not worth it. Not when I have a bunch of nutso neighbors willing to do it. We can drive around in our warm little cars and enjoy!

  7. We truly must be related, or as Driving w/the Brakes On said, it is a MI thing to say the 'Colder than a witches tit' phrase. I about fell out of my chair I thought my Mom was the only crazy broad who came up w/ great stuff like that!

  10. C'mon over to my house, I have some llama love for you. It works kind of like a meme, but it's an award. We'll talk about how you can wrangle your sidebars into submission and put it up there.

  11. That's freakin' hilarious! Love it. I have to say though, with the way I talk around here, my kids will be saying crap like that! Maybe I should clean up my mouth in hopes that my kids will keep their nice, sweet language! I'm terrible and I can't even help it!
