A New Christmas in July Decoration

Four more days till Santa makes his magical trip around the world!

I asked Tami on Sunday if she was suuuuuure Santa knew where to stop.

“He does,” she replied, rubbing my antlers.

I asked again Monday morning before she went to work.

“No worries,” she said, as she quickly packed her school lunch.  “He’ll be here.”

When she tucked me into bed last night, I asked again.  I think it might have been one too many times, ’cause she exclaimed, “Maax!!  You know Santa and I are very good friends.”

“I’m sure he’ll remember you . . .if you were a good moose, that is.”

Ummmmm. I think I was a good moose.  I mean, I didn’t stick my butt in the ice chest too many times . . .

and I thanked Santa for my books on Christmas in July . . .

But still . . . you never know . . .

I tiptoed out of bed, and snuck into David’s office.

“What’s up, Maax?” he asked.

So, I told him my Christmas worry.

Dave smiled.  “I have just the thing!  I picked it up today for Christmas in July next summer, but you know . . . it’s never too early to set it up.”

Thanks David!

Hmmmm . . . what kind of cookies do you think he likes best?

    We like the new Santa, we may have something new also to decorate site 34 for Christmas in July.

    Hunter! How are you?? Tami and David thought of your family right away when they saw that gi-normous Santa! Tami also batted her eyelashes until David agreed to buy the “camper” Santa too! We’ll have lots of new Chrismtas decorations next year! We can’t wait to see what you bring too!

    Scott and Ann, it’s good to hear from you! Things are still looking good around here – the cormorant has finally gone (mostly because the ice has begun to form) but in a few short weeks, we should see the eagles working on their nest in preparation for their eggs. That usually happens around February vacation . . . we’ll keep you posted!

    Santa will have no problem finding site 34!!

  6. Maxwell Moose says:

    Yay! I can’t wait to see them Hunter! Do you think Tami will be able to see them from her house??
