"PIGGY PUDDING?!?"

Christmas Came a couple weeks ago when my boyfriend and I bought our first Christmas tree together. As is the Tradition in any Hunter home, as soon as the boxes of ornaments were opened, the CD John Denver and the Muppets: A Christmas Together began to play.

Here are some pics of our lovely tree, as well as a favorite tune to listen to, featuring Miss Piggy herself:

The Muppets Sing We Wish You a Merry Christmas

"...No, figgy pudding. It's made with figs."

"Oh. Sorry!"

"...and bacon."

"—What?"



The tree, no tripod, in the light.

My favorite ornament, from the Christmas I turned 6: a chubby pink Cabbage Patch Kid. YAYY!!



Sort of a spooky, but nevertheless, beloved, folk doll: after about 6 years, I looked under the dress, and saw this "girl" was actually wearing pants. Maybe it was supposed to be a boy? From Estes Park in Colorado: very similar to Helen in GA.



The ornament I can't bear to throw away. I think I made it at a craft-Church thing with Emily Ann Patrick when I was about 8. I've tried scotch-taping it back together, but I think it's beyond hope.
