It's that time of year again.  Holiday photos.  I am sad to report that this year there were no candy shots.  I was really thinking we could run with last year's theme and try a variation this year:  Cookies.  Lyle with sugar cookies!  Lyle with gingerbread cookies!  Lyle with molasses cookies!  Lyle with Grandma's Tuna Fish cookies!  (They're better than they sound although I think I would like them if they actually had tuna in them too--Hi Grandma!)

But no.  This year it's bows.  Lots and lots of bows.  Of course the boss ma'am got the super-ginormus box o' bows from Costco (where everything comes in super-ginormous but when you're talking about steak or the 5 pound brick of Tillamook cheddar (mmm...cheesy) that's a good thing) without realizing that the bows had no sticky stuff.  No problem!  Says the ma'am.  She has tape!  Lots of tape!

Luckily for me she also has SweeTarts leftover from Halloween or I would not be smiling.

Okay, so maybe I'm not smiling.  But hey, at least I'm not giving her the Hairy Eyeball.  'Course, they didn't take pictures of the bow removal (yeouch!) process.  The Hairy Tape and the Hairy Eyeball go well together, let's just leave it at that.
