The Angry Nutcracker!!!

My kids don't get freaked out very easy, but they watched a Ghost Whisperer episode about dolls and since then, we've had a little problem. The problem isn't with dolls, it's with nutcrackers. Tyler LOVES nutcrackers and last year, he got this HUGE nutcracker.

Look how big it is in comparison to our couch!!!


He's had it in his room since last Christmas. It was never a problem until they saw that scary episode of Ghost Whisperer and now Mr. Nutcracker has to stay in closets and facing the wall wherever he is. They scare each other with the gigantic nutcracker IF they dare to touch him!!!! It's so funny to get in my closet to get dressed in the morning and that huge thing is hiding in my clothes because the kids can't handle him anymore. Well today, Cambelle came to me with this Scottish nutcracker and said, "Mom, this nutcracker is ANGRY"!!! I stared at him for a while, trying to figure out what was so creepy about him.


I thought maybe my kids had got to me with the "freaky nutcracker" thing and that's when I saw it.... his mustache is on his eyebrows!!! I laughed sooo hard!!!!


Cambelle had been playing with him, obviously his mustache fell off and she decided to mess with him a little!!!!! Leave it to my kid to make my day!!!!

It doesn't matter if it is real or fake, whenever I see a bagpiper, I have to repeat in my head..."a piper is down, I repeat, a piper is down." ~from "So I married an
Ax Murderer". Yes, that was a very very angry looking nutcracker. Cute and funny!

That is too funny!!!

That is so funny. You need to use him as a warning when you are angry . . . just turn the mustache around and put it on the eyebrows, set him on the snack bar and they will get the message.

I agree with Peggy, use the Nutcracked to your advantage!
