A Special Christmas Present

Whenever Collin and I leave to travel on a long trip we always say a prayer. And, usually whoever says it asks that "we will find everything in order when we return home." Well, when we returned home from our Christmas travels we had an unpleasant surprise:

LOOK!!!!

I apologize if you are a fan of these hideous blow-up lawn ornaments, but I absolutely hate them. I think they are SO tacky and ridiculous looking. Every time we drive around looking at Christmas lights, the houses I DON'T like are always the ones with these hideous things on the lawn!
So, you can imagine my horror when we returned home and found THIS blaring at us from our neighbor's front yard! If you look at the picture, you can see that actually, that Santa to the far right is like halfway on our yard. The house on the right is ours. There is absolutely no way to ignore these insanely ugly things. Every time I pull up or leave or look out the window, there they are!!!
Now, I admit I have sometimes seen these used tastefully, usually if it's one, buried in the back of the yard behind a tree or something. But seriously. FOUR??? They don't even fit in their yard!
Here's a little of a close-up for your increased viewing pleasure. I have to hold back my throw-up every time I glance in that direction. Why, why, why??? And the bad thing is-- I know they'll be up Dec. 1st next year!!! ahhhhhh!!!!
