releasing his inner "Sears model"

it's been awhile since a Sears catalog has graced my coffee table.  but as a little girl, flipping through the new catalogs that arrived each season was a highlight.  oddly, i remember it so well.  even the smell of the pages as i turned them (i'm a weirdo.  just say it).  i loved looking at the girl's clothes, the summer bathing suits, the formal dresses, the furniture, and for some reason, the bedding/comforter sets.  i guess it seemed to hold promise of new and treasured things.  also, our family shopped at Sears, so the items contained within those pages seemed accessible and attainable.  a clear childhood memory.  but i digress, yet again...
my kids hardly even know what a "Sears pose" is.  still, on the night of the recent wrestling banquet when Hudson presented to me in the kitchen all clean and handsome, i asked him to give me his best Sears pose.  this is what i got.  


   not bad, not bad...
