Ye Olde Feral Rabbit Angel
I'm right about the feral-rabbit-angel, aren't I.
After several requests, I got my pregnant self up on a chair with the camera, to take a picture of our scary tree-topper. I know it's a tradition – it's been in Nathan's family for longer than I could say – but it's all wrong, and shouldn't be considered a Christmas decoration.
Halloween, perhaps?
(No wonder Berry cried.)

oh yes, you were right indeed. the most frightening part is the human hands!!! What in blazes is this all about?
ReplyDeletegah! put it away!
ReplyDeletenow i'm making 'no no hands'.
Yikes!
ReplyDeleteand I thought our penguin-on-Prozac decoration was scary!
Ummmmmm, this is bad for your "indie pretty perfect" image, my sweet.
ReplyDeleteAppalling, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteMy husband is a man of good taste, but this is a bizarre aberration. I'm campaigning hard for its removal.
Wish me luck...
Wow. That's creepy.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't he have any siblings to give it to? I mean, it is a bit creepy. Never seen a rabbit on top of a Christmas tree!
ReplyDeleteoh, i love tradition and all but...but...that rabbit is a little hideous! is it plastic? poor berry - no wonder she cried! (apologies to nathan)
ReplyDeleteIt's ceramic – but I promise you, that doesn't make it any less offensive.
ReplyDeleteAnother upsetting thought is that there are almost certainly more of these out there somewhere! May they never band together...
totally agree with Berry. He's just wrong.
ReplyDeleteI like it. As heirlooms go, it's got some zing. You will have to get used to it, as will Berry and her childern, and theirs in turn.
ReplyDeleteLet's face it. If NATHAN, a man of very few nostalgic tendancies has not disposed of it. It's a keeper.
Please embreace the tradition.
woah!
ReplyDeleteahhh! i think i may have nightmares! way creepy.
ReplyDeletecrystal
maybe it's worth a few thousand dollars? lol your comment about more of them out there made me think of that English travelling roadshow - you know where they price antiques...
ReplyDeletehel--I never saw it before--must have been something that happened when his mother was between religions!! dad
ReplyDeletei'm with Berry on this one.
ReplyDeletepoor, poor little berry.
ReplyDeleteShell
Scary stuff, all the worse for being ceramic!
ReplyDeleteWell, I for one, love it!
ReplyDeleteI love it too! What a hilarious tradition. Keep it up I say!
ReplyDeleteWell, that's just obvious isn't it. It would be like putting a demon-like stuffed kangaroo in Berry's room. Oh. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteThat thing should be destroyed.
