King of Christmas

My brother Greg surprised his daughter by having an elf deliver a potted, living Christmas tree during her birthday party. I saw the footage, and even though it the elf wasn't played by a midget, it was still really cool. Saoirse and her friends went on to decorate the tree with a mixture of collected and handmade ornaments. I was particularly impressed by the gingerbread-man shaped ornaments decorated as various stages of MJ. Above: Captain EO.

Each one has a year painted on the back, so Saoirse will be able to reflect on the magical moment dad took her to see This Is It and loosen the grip of High School Musical on her listening habits.
