5 Signs The Holiday Season is Upon Us

November 17, 2014 By Vicky 1 Comment

 

I think it’s safe to say that, although we have yet to celebrate an actual holiday, we are knee-deep in The Holiday Season.

If you’ve missed the signs, here’s a recap:

1. Costco is selling a 10 foot stuffed bear and strategically placed it at the entrance of the store so my children can start asking for it from the moment we grab a cart to the moment we’ve had our receipt tattooed with a happy face.


By the way, I’m only 50″
51″ on a good day



2. Every 7 seconds there’s a commercial for some sort of pet: Pillow Pet, Tummy Pet, Petjamas, Stretchy Pet, Slipper Pet, Seat Pet and my favorite My Kids Can’t Ever Remember to Feed our Pet.


Thanks to  Nate’s “generous donation” to the Give Away pile,
we have plenty of room for a Whatever Pet


3. The Stupid Elf on a Freaking Shelf has started making an appearance in our Newsfeed with increasing frequency. I have to admit, though, it seems as though the ‘ol EotS is walking a fine line these days… Elves today!


 




 



4. The Red Cup.

Holiday cup + 80 degree weather + the beach =  San Diego Holiday Season

Last , but certainly not least…
