It wasn't the jumper that made me do the double take - or even the Christmas lights hanging around our windows. It's pretty ridiculous I still have Christmas lights up in the middle of January and even more ridiculous that I turn them on at night. It's not that I love Christmas - though I'm not as big of a grinch as I used to be, it's that January is so dreary and the lights are kind of cheery. Oh, and also I'm a little lazy and the box that stores all our Christmas decor is in our attic. (Notice I said box not boxes, we have ONE box of Christmas decor and it is still too much for me to put away.) But back to the main point, so if it's not the baby jumper or the lights then what is so out of place that it made me do a double take?
If you guess right I'll put extra marshmallows in your hot chocolate if you come up to see the elk.
Who needs a frigde when you have a free 0.1 acre ice chest right outside your door 6 months out of the year? Here's a small clue:
Since I did the double take I obviously did not put it there. Todd asked if I was going to put a picture of the rest of our porch on it. I told him I only wanted people to think he was a redneck not our family slobs.

I love it! And my lights are still up too, so don't feel bad!
We didn't even put up lights so we beat you in the lazy department. And I love rednecks - they're my people.
My begonias froze about a month ago, and even 50 degree weather is too cold for yardwork, so the dead plants are still there - don't feel bad about the Christmas lights. I love to put the decorations and lights up the day after Thanksgiving, but come Dec. 26th, they are back in the boxes! Joshua would leave them up through New Year's, but by then, I am tired of them!
Sorry about figid hell. Shall I post a picture of us trying to fry eggs on the sidewalk in August, because we will definitely try that this year? It will make you feel better about the snow...
Hilarious. My brothers and I would do the same thing growing up. However, we never had a nice baby jumper to hold the bottle; we just buried the bottle in the unshoveled snow on our porch. :)
Tristan: I dare you to keep turning them on until V-day!
Corbie: We are apparently your people! No lights, but I saw you put up a tree - kudos to you that takes effort. :>
Claudia: I totally want to see a picture of the fried egg in August and I'm sure I won't be jealous of your warm temps then! And maybe I could hire you as my Christmas decor coordinator next year.
Josh: Glad to hear someone else took advantage of the white stuff and I don't think the baby jumper is really more effective just more convenient as it's on our covered front porch.
