It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Sometimes when the decorations come out around Halloween for the holidays, it doesn't really get you in the mood for Christmas.

Here and there I have been seeing cheery reminders of Christmas around Santa Monica....

And then there are the creepier versions of cheer, like this....

But sometimes when people get dressed in Santa Hat's and you might see a good version of a tree, well it is the spirit that counts.
