All decked out...

I haven't set out the Christmas village for quite awhile. But this year I got a couple of new pieces that I was really excited about.

The iconic tongue-on-the-flag-pole scene from A Christmas Story...LOVE that movie, and I'm so excited the marathon starts tonight!

And the Parker's house...complete with the leg lamp in front window. 

I also found, and thus had to buy, the Chop Suey Palace where the Parkers ended up having Christmas dinner after the Bumpuses' dogs ate their turkey.  We are delaying our Christmas till Monday since Carey has to work tomorrow.  I wonder if I can talk Jared into having Chinese tomorrow.  We've done it before.  It's a hoot!
