Timber!!!!

While I have artificial Christmas trees now, a childhood memory of mine is going to a Christmas tree farm and selecting a tree that we’d cut down and bring home.  Honestly, we probably didn’t do it that many years, but I can certainly remember doing it.  Those memories came flooding back when looking at 2021’s entry in the Winter Fun with Snoopy ornament series.

You see, this year, Snoopy and Woodstock have just selected a Christmas tree.  Snoopy has it over his shoulder, and Woodstock is riding on it.  Snoopy’s carrying an ax in his other hand.  What I find funny is that Snoopy tried to go all woodsman to do it.  He’s wearing a green jacket, but the thing I find the funniest is his mustache.

Keep in mind that this is a miniature ornament, only about an inch and a half tall.  I’m wondering if Snoopy would have been wearing a plaid jacket if it were a regular sized ornament.  You can see the pattern on it if you look closely.  That’s about the only detail that might be missing thanks to the size.  As long as you keep the size in mind, you’ll be fine when you get it.

As I said, I find this ornament funny.  That fake mustache is the detail that gets me.  That, along with the memories of cutting down our own tree make this a winner.

Snoopy is standing in a small base made out of snow, so you can easily set this ornament out to be displayed if you so choose.  Keep in mind the size when you do that.  You’ll also find the 24 in a Christmas tree on the bottom if you look closely enough.

When you go to hang the ornament, you’ll find that it does tip back a little bit.  Honestly, it’s not that bad, so you won’t be too disappointed by it.

This is a fun entry to the Winter Fun with Snoopy series.  Now, go select a tree to hang the ornament on.

Here are the rest of the Winter Fun with Snoopy miniature ornaments.
