Tom Nowak's Christmas Tree, Santa Barbara, Cali.

Tom is my Uncle Bob's brother...and since my Uncle Bob Nowak is married to my Dad's youngest sister (Aunt Ev), Tom is not my uncle (I've explained this is previous posts concerning the Nowak family).

Anyway, here's his tree, complete with Santa's snacks and a rocker for him to rest in. Santa - not Tom. I spent Christmas Day with the Nowak family as my Uncle Bob, Aunt Ev and their two youngest - Mike and Natalie - traveled in from Grafton, Wisconsin to spend part of the holidays with Uncle Bob's mother.
