Funny Christmas Story

My parents usually don't decorate the outside of their home for Christmas. As a kid I would beg and beg for them to decorate and they (mainly my dad) didn't want to fool with the hassle. I guess my dad knew that most of the decorating would fall on his shoulders. Well this year they have apparently gone all out. Side note....this is yet another fun thing they are doing now that they have moved away. First they get a pool and now they decorate the outside of their house. Anyway, not bitter!

Back to the story, there are all kinds of things in their front yard this year such as a santa on a motorcycle (prank on my dad from a few years ago), reindeer, Christmas trees, and honestly I don't know what all else.

My mom calls this morning and said that she was SO mad! Let me just say, there are many times in my mom's life when something makes her mad that I think it's funny. This would be another one of those times. She told me that some neighborhood kids came through and did something inappropriate with her reindeer. I won't go into details, but let's just say there may be some baby reindeer in the yard next year. Needless to say, I have been laughing about that all morning! What a clever joke to play!! Her reindeer were not the only ones exploited, the neighbors' reindeer were as well. Kids, cover your eyes if you are driving through my parents' neighborhood. This might be a lesson your parents aren't ready to teach you about yet!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!
