Ho, Ho, Go Cougars!!

Glen arrived home from work tonight wearing this lovely BYU Santa cap his office manager gave him to wear to their company Christmas party today.

Nothing like the color blue to make a person get in the Christmas spirit--right?


After posing for the picture by the tree, Glen could hardly wait to show me something. He was so pleased with himself that he hadn't cut off the plastic hook the stores use to hang up merchandise. He was preserving that hook so it could act as an ornament hanger for our Christmas tree.

Let's take a vote and see who thinks this is a wonderful new ornament for our festive family tree?


First vote cast--HECK NO!!

That blue Santa hat is meant to be worn to the BYU vs. Utah game tomorrow and it is not meant to be the center of attention on the tannenbaum in the middle of the living room.

Anyone else want to cast a vote?

I did so much want to write that Jacob is not allowed to vote.

I knew you'd rig the vote (and get a Jimmer comment in as well)!!!

Laurie, couldn't Jacob sway your vote? I'm waiting to hear from you. Would you stand for this atrocity hung upon your beautifully decorated Christmas tree?

jlthomas said...

Absolutely not. I would take that off in a minute. I think it is really cute he kept the hook to hang it though.

I want to know why it's not sitting on the top of the tree as the star.

Now I'm really sad I didn't stick around yesterday until Dad got home flaunting his hat. And I am also finding it ironic that we were looking at your strategic placement of the ugly, gawky ornaments yesterday and then Dad's placement of the gawkiest "ornament" in plain sight.

Dad's threat better be empty about the Christmas money because my vote is take that thing off! Or at least put it next to the snowman and gingerbread man hidden away on the back of the tree.

Sarah, FYI. I just updated my will and my Christmas list. You are getting on very shaky ground!!!

Rebecca said...

Well, I'm finally getting around to reading this post, but you already know my vote: I like it best as the tree topper!

After all--isn't BYU football the true meaning of Christmas?
