What could be more festive than a jolly holiday spider?! 🕷 I have it on good authority that holiday spiders are actually the elf’s pet of choice! Who knew?!

So is it illusion or magic trick? Anyone?…

Are you a Grinch or a Santa’s helper? I’m a bit of both...mostly helping Big Red though.🎅I gotta admit, The Grinch is one of my favorite Christmas characters of all time though. What’s your favorite Christmas movie?
