The narwhal is amazing.

The narwhal can be found at Target if anyone here feels called to give a lonely holiday narwhal a happy home.

You know, I’ve been struggling with holiday decor now that we own a home because we were both raised religiously with all the trappings and now are firmly not religious so aside from the tree (hello, my Lutheran roots) and a boxwood wreath on the door I haven’t bought anything. This narwhal could perfectly fit the ‘festive but zero religious connotations’ bill.

Now I just need to tell H that my text about buying a festive narwhal was not a joke…

It’s on sale for $34 and if you spend $50 on Target’s wondershop stuff this week you get an additional $10 off. They also have a “nordic rabbit”, “festive llama”, and a hedgehog.

I’m an enabler!!

I threw in the dinosaur too because she might be joining our household.

My desire to not store these the rest of the year is currently overruling the fact that the narwhal, elephant, llama, and now dinosaur are in my cart.

I hope they have them next year, because I’m finally dedicating a budget category for holiday decorations.

I almost sent you the link for the rabbit one when I saw it.

Winter-ready squirrels jumping through the bushes and knocking off snow and having branches bounce under their weight

Are they chubby? I love chubby squirrels so much. Our squirrels here rarely get chubby because the weather does not force them to prepare for winter in that way.

Not quite as far north as @plainjane - but our squirrels are all chonky now. We have had several snows, but they haven’t lasted (yet. they will soon).

I went for a walk with a friend to see a community garden decked out with holiday lights. It was relaxing and pleasantly festive. A little one approx 2 years old was dancing on a bridge. She stopped to comment to tell us we brought our “juice” AND had straws. (It was ‘old fashion’ flavored juice, haha). My friend was charmed, then spun in a pirouette. The little one copied her. So cute!
