Continuing the Countdown

To keep up the holiday spirit crap I'm trying really hard to keep up, last Thursday - The Mr and I (with Juli and Martin, in from Scotland) checked out the Miracle on 34th Street in Hampden.

I bring you the photo montage of our trip. I have to say… I was a little disappointed this year. I mean, a lot of the houses were the same kitschy Baltimore-hon style lights but it seemed like half the street gave up. Anywho…


New facebook profile pic? I think so.



Martin seemed a little more dazzled by the lights than Juli.




The famed "metal man" and some of his work.




The Mr got artsy with his photos.



Yay - kitschy Christmas décor!




No clever comment here.


Someone did a "Nightmare Before Christmas" theme! That's one of my favorite movies (I love claymation). However, this house was NOT a part of the Miracle on 34th Street. This was a street we stumbled upon when we were looking for a place to eat (btw - we ate at Golden West Café… I highly recommend it).

Also on the side street with the best decorated house pictured above was a strange blow up scene of Rudolph pulling Santa out of a chimney. However, it looked like Santa was giving Rudolph head… not exactly the Christmas message I would imagine people want to send to little kids. Isn't beastiality illegal? Fellatio is also illegal in Maryland, in case you were wondering.
