I must concede.......

...Jason won.

Yes, I said it and there you have it!

Remember this guy...

This is a Santa that Jason and I hide from each other each year.  

This year, I thought I had it won. I mailed it to Jason's girlfriend's house and they had it out when he came over for dinner. You can go HERE to read more about it.

Weeeelllll, we flew to Arizona Sunday to have Christmas with my family.  When we got to the airport, Jason had packed in a carry-on that he wanted to check...it was STUFFED full.  So being the mom that I am (and cheap I don't want to pay $25 for a carry-on!), I made him open it up (right there on the sidewalk) and take some things out and put them in his brother's suitcase so he could carry his on.  I was a little confused as to why he was so put out by that.....

 Then we got to security and there was NO ONE in line.  The good news....no one in line, the bad news....they had nothing to do.  So we all got stopped and searched...ugh.  Jason was getting more and more irritated when they asked to open his suitcase.  I was right behind him and was saying..calm down, it's no big deal.....

....little did I know that the SANTA was in the suitcase and now had been exposed TWICE in my presence....neither time did I notice.  yes, I am observant like that.

Fast forward to Christmas dinner last night.

Jason was partly in charge of taking pictures.  

Let me just show you how much fun he had taking pics of me with the Santa BEHIND me that I NEVER saw!!!

 yes, I am even posing for pictures I ASSUME he is taking of me!!!

So, there you have it....

JASON WON

...this year.

But don't worry....

I have 365 days to begin thinking about this cute little guy and how I am going to win NEXT year!!!
