“For what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbors, and laugh at them in our turn?”

If you don't recognize that quote, start reading Jane Austen IMMEDIATELY.  You've yet to live.

Some years Lynsey orchestrates a home-made Christmas gift exchange among us siblings.  One year the theme was "make something that hangs from a car's rear-view mirror."  I still use and cherish the Star Trek ornament Swiss made for me.  However, the ornament you see below is falling apart and had to be thrown away.  Lex made it for Jake.  There used to be a word bubble above Jake's head that said, "What da hell?"  Lex kindly made it removable so we wouldn't have to expose the kids to cuss words if we didn't want to.

He photoshopped a wedding day pic and one of my bridal pics to create this masterpiece.  As you can see, some of my photos included close encounters with a tree.  Lex and Justin have gotten more punchlines from that photo shoot than from my Junior Miss video, and that's saying something.

Most thoughtful gift ever. Lex is one of a kind.
