National Squirrel Appreciation Day

You think I'm joking, right? Who thinks of these holidays?? I have friends who are deathly afraid of these "beady-eyed" little monsters!! (I kinda think they are cute - from a distance)

So - in honor of National Squirrel Appreciation Day on Sunday January 21st lets take a look at how people across the country celebrate this joyous occasion -
Some people write, some people sing to show their appreciation. This guy shapes balloons!

And then their are the truly bizarre people who enjoy dressing up (I hope) dead squirrels in cute little costumes and posing them. Something about this just seems wrong!


I hope you get a chance to enjoy National Squirrel Appreciation Day! I think I will celebrate by...mmm...I actually think I'll skip this holiday. I do love all of God's creatures, but a holiday?? Seriously, people!!
