You can't decorate EVERYTHING

I got back to the island yesterday afternoon after a quick trip to Canada, where it's looking very festive for the holiday.

I finally remembered to take my camera when we went out last evening. I didn't have a tripod so these pictures are a little shaky, but still pretty, and are only a sample of the decorations here.

People are really getting into the decorating more each year, including the 'lawn' decorations (blow-up Santa with all the things that go with Santa). Christmas trees are a big hit here now too, I hope to go out again and get more pictures of all the nice displays around the island.

Here are some displays in the local colonias around our home:











The Dollar Store near my house in Canada had Christmas adornments for people (mostly hats). They also had them for dogs, and of course I had to buy a set for Loco.

Loco was not impressed, and was scared to move in his getup. The cats were all over him checking him out, it was hard to get a picture without a tail in the way.



Somehow I don't think Loco will be spreading much Christmas cheer if we make him wear his costume when we distribute small toys in the neighborhood.
