Kristen BellandDax Shepardaren’t playing around when it comes to decorating theirChristmastree.

On Monday, theArmchair Expertpodcast host, 47, posted a video ofThe Grinch-inspired Christmas tree his wife decorated.

“You may have heard…about the Christmas tree that scared the sh– out of me,” Shepard starts the video saying. “I thought it had destroyed Newtonian physics as I knew it. Some people are curious as to what it looks like, and are you ready?”

He then turns the camera to show the top-heavy tree in all its glory, with, most notably, a full-bodied Grinch sticking his head into the Christmas tree.

“Hope that satiates everyone. Kristen Bell, you’re a f—ing genius,” he adds.

Also praising Bell, the video’s caption read: “Some people are playing on Xmas. Not@kristenanniebell. She’s here to kick a– and drink beer, and unfortunately for her Christmas competitors, she’s appears to be all out of beer.”

Bell reposted thevideoproudly showing off her work, proving she managed to surprise her family with her Christmas creation.

“When you make something crafty and it fools your whole family, THATS a Christmas miracle,” the mom of two, joked.

TheFrozenactress, 42, has long been a fan of Christmas andThe Grinch, as she confirmed near the end of November when she had Shepard dress up as the Dr. Seuss character to donate diapers courtesy of their family care company,Hello Bello.

The two then launched into a fake Italian accent as they joked about how they would use the diapers on their own children, 9-year-old Lincoln and 7-year-old Delta.

Getting into the holiday spirit, Shepard took on the Grinch persona, to which Bell hilariously told him, “We’ll workshop that.”
