Default Thinking outside the bark.

I kept staring at this piece of bark trying to find a Santa face in it. I brought it in to Anna and she didn't see anything either. We were eating breakfast and I Jokingly told Anna if I stare at it long enough Santa will come stepping out of that piece of bark. And there he was Just waiting to come stepping out.

Yep, there he is, just the way he's supposed to be. Great job in bringing him out of there.

Nice work Goody, I think you could find him in just about anything. What a great pair you and Anna make. Just like Mr, and Mrs Clause.
