Christmas Ornament #12: Wise Guys

Each year, we add a Christmas ornament to our tree, and last year I covered the first eleven ornaments.

Many years, we pick something that seems to describe our year a little bit. It might be moving to new places, or new babies, or going on new adventures. This year: nothing. Same job, same address, same kids, same everything. About the only thing new is our tree - it's 50% taller than our old tree - and now we have room for all of our ornaments. So, in celebration, we added not 1 new ornament for the year, but three: The Wise Guys
The girls insisted on putting them as far apart from each other as possible on the tree ("they're playing hide and seek"). I guess they've split up to better search for the baby Jesus - no word on how they'll radio in their position if they do find him. My pictures are a bit fuzzy, but there they are. They are about 3 inches tall and just painted wood, but they're just classy enough (i.e. not classy at all) to be a good fit for our tree.

Oh, and I guess because I can, here's a picture of the tree:
