Polar Pole

"This is MY Polar Bear friend!"

Pat, pat the Polar Bear

Hugs for Polar Pole!

When we got home from Thanksgiving, our house was cheerily decorated all thanks to our kind neighbor. It was nice to come home and be welcomed by festive, ribbon-bedecked wreaths in the windows. We are so thankful to have such nice neighbors!!

Katy's favorite decoration, by far, is the giant blow-up Polar Bear that she's named, "Polar Pole." Since Polar Pole comes on at night, we tell Katy that Polar "naps" during the day. As soon as the sun sets, though, Katy almost always drags either Ted or I to the front door and states, "Polar Pole!" to let us know that she wants to visit her "friend." Once we are outside, Katy loves to "tickle" the giant Polar Bear's feet and give it a "high five!" She's even been known to give him a hug, or two.... or, ten. ;-) It's REALLY hard to tear Katy away from Polar Bear in order to go back inside.
