All things goofy

The Thursday Nite Dinner Club had a white elephant party this week. The instructions were:

1. Dig to the depths of your closet, pantry or garage and find the most hideous item you can locate!
2. Give it a little spit shine.
3. Wrap it in beautiful paper and bows to disguise is heinous nature.
4. Bring it with cheer to the white elephant party.
5. No money could be spent on the items.

The gifts and the stories related to them were hilarious!

A beautiful fur jacket came from my mom who recently purchased it thinking it was great! I took one look at it, declared it hideous and identified it to be perfect for the white elephant party! It was a hit with lots of stealing action. In the end, Cindy won it but said she would share it with anyone who wanted it for future pimp costumes.

The butt pic is of Kyle's new cans of skoal coppenhagen tobacco! We found four cans of it in our outside fridge! We can only guess that it came from one of Jim's fishing buddies. This gift led to stories of everyones first try of chew....and the subsequent vomiting stories! And around Kyle's wrists are his new sleeve holder uppers - beautiful gold in color, you push your sleeves up and these devices hold them in place.....they also rip off arm hair! Which led to random screaming coming from Kyle.




A freaky mexican marionette was my prized gift for the nite. And imagine my surprise when I went to bed and found it UNDER my covers! Thanks Marty and Drew.

Lucky Alex became the proud owner of a box full of used tupperware...some with and some without lids! She found one with multiple compartments and decided it was a gem and was using it for her lunch!

A good time was had by all!
