There's many artistic Christmas trees in Ada this year. The Icon hopes to feature several this month. This one is found in The Freed Center lobby.

Does your Christmas tree  have a polar bear ornament? This one does. It's a tree at the ONU College of Pharmacy. Trevor Jones, ONU photographer, shared this photo with the Icon.

Can you find the human in this picture? 

That's Jane Helser (center) standing among more than 30 cutouts that form a holiday display in her yard. Her home is located near the end of West Buckeye Avenue.

You'll remember Jane from seeing her write up and photo in The New York Times, People Magazine, Associated Press and CBS News, among other major media outlets.
