Let me preface this entry by saying: I have never in my life.
Seriously.
This is Jennifer C's entry and she has outdone herself. This house is somewhere in Mandeville, LA.
Readers, behold the ugly.
Yes, those are gift-wrapped columns, stuffed animals, and gift boxes. I don't know what's up with the tigers. I'm thinking LSU fans. Or maybe it's Seigfried and Roy's winter home.
Another view. I think the gift boxes bring the Christmas joy. I like stockings in the window and Elmo, because nothing says happy birthday, Jesus like Elmo taped to your shutters. Yes, that's the finest packing tape money can buy on the siding.
To fully appreciate the tacky, Jennifer took shots at night too!
I'm glad this homeowner has home security, you wouldn't want anyone to break in and steal those stuffed animals.
Okay people, send in your pics for the Ugly Christmas Lawn Decor Contest to kerrybee7@yahoo.com. The winner will be announced on Christmas Eve and I'll send you a $25 Starbucks giftcard. So, get our your camera and go find the tacky!

Home security? Dang gurl! You have a good eye. I had to go back and look at the pictures; I didn’t even notice that in real life! (By the way, I know you have a doctor and web designer on the Board of Directors for the Kerry Blog International Headquarters….any lawyers too?)

Jenn, Kerry Blog International Headquarters does not have an attorney, per se, but we are good with the Google and have a cousin in law school, so I believe that counts for something. As far as other positions: yes, we have a web designer, cake decorator, doctor, demolitions expert, engineer, counselor, landscape architect, bass player, social worker, lead singer, accountant, and part-time magician/Elvis Impersonator. Plus whatever the hell I am. I believe Glutton For Punishment fits.

Just give Jennifer the damn gift card. Really. Who can beat Elmo taped to the shutters. I give up.

Oh come on! There has to be other entries out there! (By the way, I had to stop and stare again this morning (yes, it is like stopping to look at a car wreck;you just can’t help yourself) and what I want to know is what are the presents wrapped in and what kind of packing tape do they use??? In all this rain and fog, those presents are still up jack!(I’m still waiting for SB to send in the inflatable Christmas zebra……….
